I met Kim Stanley Robinson at Mars Fest (an event in Pasadena to celebrate one of the Mars Lander's arrival on the red planet). I stood in line to say hi, and then moved to the side of his table where I glommed on to him for the better part of a half hour. The poor man. Looking back I feel just awful. At one point a couple of other authors showed up and started talking about Cryptonomicon (this was just after it hit the bookstores) and then they walked away to get lunch. It was only then that I realized what I had done. Oh the shame. <br /><br />Sigh. The only good part of that story is that I can say it happened fourteen years ago, and I've never done anything like it again.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16289961160458499010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303103.post-59220063108992630442012-07-17T09:29:27.881-05:002012-07-17T09:29:27.881-05:00Hi Patricia - I love SDCC.

That and DragonCon are my two favorite cons of the year (*exception - I do a lot of GOH spots, and whatever regional cons are hosting me in a given year are *also* my favorite cons of the year.)<br /><br />Hi Joe - you went for the "low hanging fruit". But I'm thinking we'll have to find a place that serves insects.Lou Andershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00694362734492222851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303103.post-1594305885411099202012-07-17T00:12:07.660-05:002012-07-17T00:12:07.660-05:00Hey Lou, it was great to finally meet you and spen...Hey Lou, it was great to finally meet you and spend time with you, this in spite of your "I don't eat red meat" excuse to get out of eating them tasty testicles. Next Comic Con, I'm going to a look up a place that serves up chicken gonads.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303103.post-65024124941594645192012-07-16T17:33:55.360-05:002012-07-16T17:33:55.360-05:00So glad that you finally got to meet the Mallozzi....So glad that you finally got to meet the Mallozzi. I know you had wanted to. He's quite the guy.<br />I love San Diego. I'm not sure about Comic Con though. It's a bit too crowded for me. I understand that this year there were even more people there than ever before. <br /><br />Are you going back next year, or are you going to keep your conventions simple and just do the Dragon Con one?<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />PatriciaArctic Goddesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07439287792909520801noreply@blogger.com
