Which sounds like something my heroine Evvie Sparrow would be up to. In my case – conventions. I just returned from the entirely delightful 9 Worlds Geekfest, where I was on a panel on Epic Fantasy in the effulgent company of Elizabeth Bear, Rebecca Levene and Scott Lynch, moderated by the ever-patient Den Patrick, and where I otherwise spent possibly too much time chatting in the bar. I am off to Worldcon tomorrow, where I will be running writing workshops with the fabulous Sarah Ellender, taking part in the pirate programme (yaarr!) run by the splendiferous David Gullen, helping out at the T Party Writers critique workshop…and possibly spending a few minutes in the bar. Oh, yes, and getting to some events and panels, I hope. And bare minutes after that I’ll be heading off to Eurocon, where I am not booked to do anything at all except be a punter, which will be slightly more relaxing. I will of course not be spending any time in the bar. At some point I shall, however, be trying to get some writing done, as I got far too many ideas at 9Worlds and would really like to grab some of them before they get away. After that, I shall probably fall over for a bit, before going to Bristolcon in October…

WOW! You are one busy lady. Be sure and tip one for me..as I will here over the pond!
I will indeed. It is Ireland, after all, where they tend to have rather good whisky…
