Well, Loncon3 is just around the corner! In terms of the calendar, that is. I’ll actually be flying a substantial distance to be there.

Every year, the World Science Fiction Convention is held in a different location. This year, the 72nd World Science Fiction Convention will be held at the ExCel center in London, from August 14 to 18th. And I am both proud and humbled to say that I’ve been invited to be one of the Guests of Honor!
