Swancon and beyond

Well, for me the con was stressful but good. I take the whole guest thing very seriously, so do my best to be well-prepared for the panels I'm on and to also try to be around the con and available to chat with fans old and new.

I didn't feel I could really chill until after North Pole Tonight on the Sunday, so Sunday night was my only room party visit of the con.

The guests were all good. There aren't many guests who would leave the con to visit fans who had become sick or injured and so couldn't attend.
