I finally heard from programming, I will be a guest this year.

They've set up a webpage for guests to enter information and express interests. Nice thing is, I have until April 8th to make changes, if necessary. Here's my bio:

"Doug Berry" is actually a ingenious clockwork robot, crewed by a crack team of fairy penguins. In this guise they have authored several books for the venerable RPG Traveller, including At Close Quarters, Ground Forces, and the upcoming Trojan Reach sourcebook.

The penguins have created an air-tight legend for the Doug-bot, including service in the US Army as an infantryman and surviving cancer. Along with writing, they use this infernal device to destroy Coca-Cola supplies. When not spreading terror it is hangered in San Francisco with it's "wife" Kirsten, roommate Rose, and a elite platoon of teddy bears.


Now assuming that con actually lasts the whole four days, this should be a good one.

A few years ago, I wrote the programming dept a very chatty letter and included my fanish resume, topics I would be qualified to speak on, ideas for panels that I may not be qualified, but would like to see and said they could be put me on any panel they wanted, cause I could probably BS my though it anyway.

Last year they took me up on it.

In addition to the usual computer/internet panels, I was on a "When characters take control" (where it finally connected that Filk Maya is Writer Maya) and "Queer as Fen" which I bailed on as I thought I would have input. (Turns out I was supposed to be the token straight.)
