Well, it’s the first weekend in March, so it’s time for Stellarcon in High Point! The guest of honor this year is bestselling fantasy novelist Patrick Rothfuss, and there’s a great lineup of additional guests of honor and other guest panelists.

| Guest of Honor Patrick Rothfuss |
Including me! (Not pictured.) Yay! I’m only going for one day, Saturday, from about 9 AM to 6 PM (taking the train if anybody wants to join me for the day trip) but somehow, the awesome folks at Stellarcon found some last-minute room for me:
Star Trek vs. Star Wars
4:00-5:00 PM
A lighthearted, audience-participation-encouraged “debate” of the two sf media juggernauts. Good thing we aren’t talking Dr. Who vs. Firefly, so we might actually get out of this one alive…
Panelists: Albin Johnson (of the 501st) and Les Rickard (of Starfleet International), who will each bring along one or two non-guest members of their organization to join in, and Samuel Montgomery-Blinn (moderator)
Outside of these, I’ll hopefully be stalking Mr. Rothfuss and whomever else is on an interesting panel, setting up a Bull Spec display in the fan table hallway, checking in on the dealer room, talking, etc. Looking forward to it!
