How are you going to spend those long nights on your starship? Play games, of course! Space poker, space chess, space Monopoly… this is a fanvid celebrating game night in space. It premiered at WisCon 46, May 2023.

Also posted to AO3 here.

self care flow chart

Discussion about neurodivergence and self care at WisCon this year led to me finally writing up a post about my self care flow chart. You can find it here if you are interested: https://sophygurl.dreamwidth.org/2579580.html

Retro scifi art I was hired to create for WisCon's app! I think we can point to these as the start of my growing love for violet blue. Thanks so much for bringing me on for this BC, they're still some of my favourite work I've done!

Should I share more? There's more. There's a BUNCH more.

I'm a co-chair of a feminist sci fi con and it's a great accepting, awesome time. So I'm gonna post some of our stuff on here in the hopes that maybe some of my Tumblr weirdos will also find this conference up their alley. And y'all always have good ideas. So!

Panel idea submissions are open! The Wiscon 46 programming department looks forward to receiving all of the awesome ideas YOU have to offer!

We invite you to submit programming ideas for WisCon 46 through January 7, 2023. To submit an idea, navigate to https://program.wiscon.net and click “Suggest a Session” link on right-hand side. We can’t wait to see your suggestions!

False starts notwithstanding, I AM AT WISCON AND WISCON IS GOOD.

Had a lot of complex feelings about how I haven't had spoons/bandwidth to do panels, volunteer, etc. this year. This will be the first WisCon since I started coming where I don't volunteer, and the first in almost a decade where I'm not on a panel or moderating. But maybe that's what I need this year - to just take this weekend to relax and read books and listen to other people talk about interesting things.

Anyway if you're at the con and want to meet up let me know!! My badge has my legal name this year but I'm still Myriad on the Discord.

The 2022 convention season begins with a return to the WisCon dealer’s room! Find me this upcoming weekend, May 27-30, at the Concourse in Madison, Wisconsin. I’ll have all three volumes of O Human Star, copies of Across a Field of Starlight, and a few copies of other books from my back catalog. See you there!
