Fantasy Folk

Or pod people? Look closely and you may spot some of your favourite fantasy writers and illustrators -Ari Berk, Terri Windling, Charles Vess, Ellen Kushner, Delia Sherman, Charles de Lint, Brian Froud, and Wendy Froud. And yeah, that's me in the front, in the silky brown with my hands in my pockets (always got into trouble in the Navy for that). This was taken at the Mythic Journeys Conference. I still miss it.

Great picture! I dislike taking picures (I always try to sneak into the back row but the photographer never allows it because I'm so short, sigh) but I love looking at them.

Will you blog about the conference? I'd love to read about all the hijinxs you all got into :).

Hi Orla,
Did I tell you that I did the cover for Ellen Kushner's first novel "Sword's Point" many moons ago. Hey !

Laura, dear heart, that was wayyyyyy too long ago for me to blog about it. But there are a few posts & pics of the conference in the July and August archives. Also if you go to my website and click on the red butterfly (USA Tour) you'll find more stuff about Mythic under Atlanta.

And hey, Sprong, didn't know that. Send me a jpeg and I'll pop it up on Bookmark.

Thanks for the advice O.R.! I'm heading there now.

Oops, Laura, I meant July and August archives of my Blog (as opposed to Bookmark)
