Thanks to everyone who joined us, hung out with us, conversed with us, and put up with me.
It was a delight to meet people who shared some of my passion for quality anthropomorphic stories and literature, and doubly a delight to put a lot of good faces to names!
Mr. Mandolino: You were really great company and I look forward to seeing more of your work.
Dwale: You were really the pleasant surprise for me at the con. Man, you’re fun. You and me, beer anytime.
Munchkin: You and your boy are great, thank you for being gracious hosts and summoning the energy to socialize with us and keep up smiling faces during the con and after.
UkeShaman: Thank you for coming out and sharing a table with me and Dizcoon, you were good company and you endured us being blowhards with grace and good cheer.

Kyell: Nice to meet you again in passing, thanks for working your ass off and showing folks you can make a living hoeing this tough row that is writing and publishing.

Ocean, Nighteyes_Dayspring, everyone else I know I’m forgetting and am terrible and senile and sorry: Thank you for coming out and being part of this event. Was a great time, and I had nothing but good times in the company of peers.
Because of this trip I get to look at this forum in an entirely new way.
