Baycon: Choose Your Own Adventure!

Thanks to the efforts of Chairwoman pentaclemoon and Fantasy Guest of Honor dpaxson, Yrs Truly has been invited as a guest to this year's Baycon.

Programming didn't put me on the schedule, and didn't tell me about this until the schedule was off at the printers'. While you, I, and any veteran congoer all know that the Program is Not Written in Stone until the Con, and Really Not Even Then, it's still pretty firm clay off at the kiln. Granted, I could have idled about as a relative freeloader, but I'd rather pay my own way, and here I had license to do so on my own hook, as 'twere.

Thus did I write to Programming, with great lamentation:

"Why is this? For lo, I filled out your questionnaire and bathed and everything!"

And lo, Programming did reply:

"Er. Oops. Well, I've got you scheduled for 'anywhere dpaxson is', although not officially published that way. Um, just add anything you like."

"Really? I wouldn't be a screaming meteor of grotesque imposition?"

"Nope. Go for it."

"Isn't the program already at the printer?"

"We already have a fairly significant errata sheet, so adding a few more lines is no issue. :)"

Hearing some of what dpaxson, grendel_todd, and jon_decles are going though makes me wonder if it's not less an "errata sheet" and more an "errata booklet". But it is also so that the Glorious Floating ConCom have managed more with less in the past, so while discombobulation reigns just now, I've no doubt it will Somehow All Fall Together by the con, rather like watching a train wreck in reverse.

So. The head of Programming told me to roll my own program...

( So I did. )
