Next weekend I am going to Gaeltacht Minnesota‘s workshop in Winona, like I did a year ago. The workshop is split into sections based on experience/ability.
Today the instructor of my section sent an e-mail to everybody in it. The contents were not surprising, but the address list really got my attention. As I expected, there were two of my Monday night classmates from this past year, but I also recognized the address of one of Will’s students (i.e., from the advanced class) and that of a GM instructor. So it looks like the powers that be have placed me in an upper level group. I am flattered and scared.

I first learned about science fiction fandom in the spring of 1968, more than 40 years ago. I attended my first convention a year later. So I have been a part of fandom, and vice versa, for more than 2/3 of my life.
