A Brief Observation on BookCrossers
I was very lucky to be a guest at the Dublin BookCrossing Convention 2012 in the Camden Court Hotel on Saturday.
I myself am not a BCer and before the weekend, only counted one of the species among my friends. How lovely then, to give a talk on WorldBuilding in SFF at 10am to a large, cheerful audience. Not only were they more appreciative of the material than I might have expected from a non-SF crowd, but their openness became very apparent whenever I chatted with them. For example, I had an approximation of the following conversation twice in a row with two different people:
Me: It's very SF, you mightn't like it.
Random BCer: Oh, I'm a BookCrosser. I'll try anything.
If you are as curious as they are, you can find out more about BookCrossing here.
