I’m off to World Fantasy in the morning. A 5.45am flight (shudder!).  Up at 3.30am, shower, dress and to the airport. Then 20-odd hours of transit and I get to emerge into the cool fall air of San Francisco.  I have two days with Charles and the gang, which I’m greatly looking forward to, before heading on to Calgary and World Fantasy. It should be enormous fun.  I’m there five days, then back to SF for a day and home again. I’m gone all told for about 10 days.  A whirlwind lightning visit.  I’ll keep you up to date on it if I can.  I usually don’t, but we’ll see.  In the meantime, be well and take care of yourselves.
