I just signed up for my very first Left Coast Crime Conference in Sacramento, CA this coming March (March 29 - April 1, 2012). What clinched it for me, besides the very cool people attending, was a town called Fairytale Town ten miles from the conference.
Yes, I'm a geek!
But you knew that already.
Left Coast Crime looks like a blast too.
I also picked up my Denver Comic Con tickets and artist table today. For those who don't know, the Denver Comic Con will run June 15 - 17, 2012.
In between those two events will be the Pikes Peak Writers Conference. It's their 20th anniversary and bound to be a hell of a party. That happens April 20 - 22, 2012.
Oh and possibly RomCon in June.
And then Colorado Gold in September.
Bouchercon in October 2012. It's in Cleveland. My first trip back in nearly 20 years.
Are you going to any of these events? Are there others I should think about attending?
I'll be at PPWCon and I'm waiting for more info on Denver Comic Con. I've never been to one. The LCCC sounds cool, but Fairytale Town sounds even better! With what you write, you HAVE to go there at least once!
ReplyDeleteWould love to do Pikes Peak but it will depend on money (work in 'saving the world' is scarce in this economy). And Denver Comic Con. Hope I see you there. Have fun in Fairytale Town.

Sounds like a creature from urban fantasy.)
Funny, right now I'm planning my convention stuff for next year too!
ReplyDeleteLCC is a blast, fun, small and friendly. You'll love it. In fact, you're making me temped to go... It's in Colorado Springs in 2013, I think.
I'll be at Bouchercon for sure too, maybe PPWC, Thrillerfest, still figuring it out. I'd love to catch up in person.
Hi Shannon:
ReplyDeleteExcited to see you at PPW. I'd love to hang out at Denver Comic Con too. It would be lots of fun to see you dressed up!
Hey Chris:
ReplyDeleteI hope you can make PPW and Denver Comic Con. But, yeah, it's hard to swing anything when you're saving the world. And yet, you'll have a superhero costume ready.
Fleur:
ReplyDeleteGreat minds :)
Oh, I'm so glad that you'll be Bouchercon and hopefully at PPW. We'll have to catch up. I'm very excited about LCC. It seems like a nice way to ease into the con craziness.
I will definitely be at PPW, and I'm pretty sure that will max the budget for 2012 writing getaways. Though Columbus is a short 3-4 hour drive...
ReplyDeleteI mean Cleveland. ;)
