I can't believe I'll get to all of these. I'm already intending to go to Redemption, Confounding Tales and Year of the Teledu, and I additionally have a membership for the Japanese Worldcon (although I haven't done anything about travel or accommodation, and it'll cost me about as much as attending three to four other conventions on the list).
Are there any conventions you'd like to tell me about that I really shouldn't miss, and that I've omitted from that list? Or any that are on the list that you'd be particularly keen to see me attend? Do you want to take advantage of an unrivalled opportunity to pass comment on my convention-attending habits or record? Now's your chance.
