Can*Con

This account is now dormant and not currently monitored. Please go to can-con.org for up to date information on the con and contact information. Thank you!

@Douglas__K We don't rule anything out. It all depends on how much time and energy our volunteers have. We don't want to have a "presence" on a platform but not really be monitoring it or doing anything with it.

@CanConSF Hey, any chance of you showing up on Mastadon / the fediverse?

As Can*Con 2023 winds down we want to thank all our panelists, volunteers, and attendees for another fantastic weekend! Thank you so much for coming and sharing wonderful stories together. We're already looking forward to Can*Con 2024!

We will always treasure the connections we made here and hope to maintain the conversations in other ways. See you soon!

Please keep in touch by subscribing to our newsletter, joining us on Facebook, and we can also be found up in the blueness of the sky somewhere. As always, you can find all the info you need about the con at can-con.org.

Hi everyone: Now that Can*Con 2023 is in the books we wanted to let you know that we will be shuttering our presence on X/Twitter at the end of the week, for reasons that I am sure we do not need to explain.

Can*Con Day One! Our registration desk opens at 3 pm if you still need to get your tickets. The vendors' room is open to the public (masks required) and opens at 5 pm. So excited to get #CanCon2023 underway!

Hi, all! Off to @CanConSF tomorrow morning, offline until Monday morning seeing all my friends in Canadian sf and fantasy, and being on panels and such! My good friend @mariebilodeau is launching a great new novel, OATHBREAKER, and @julieczerneda and I will be toasting her.

@LynneMacLean2 Oh boo. :( Feel better soon!

I was planning to attend @CanConSF in person for the first time since Covid. Last year was impossible due to knee surgery. And now I have come down with a rotten respiratory virus, as yet unidentified. So, I will miss you all again. Enjoy, take care, and I'll see you next year!

Who’s going to @CanConSF ? Editor in chief Trevor Quachri & managing editor @E_Hockaday will both be there! Come say hi!

We *also* still have spots available for Friday workshops with @LydiaMHawke, @JohnWPartington, @arleysorg and @julieczerneda! These are all great chances to work on your craft with industry pros! Go here: can-con.org/registration-a…

Online Registration is open (until we sell out!) until October 11th! If we still have tickets, they will be on sale at the registration desk starting at 3pm on Friday. There are also slots remaining for Can*Con*Virtual go here: can-con.org

We advert you to a small misprint in our recent newsletter: on this (!!!) Friday the vendor's room will open at 5pm as previously announced, not 3pm.

We are so excited to have ghosts at our con!

Ottawa friends! We will be at @CanConSF October 13th-15th. Want to save yourself some shipping? Order between now and October 11th and we can bring your books with us. You can pick them up from the dealer's room. (We will obviously still ship out earlier if that's preferred!)

ALSO! Signups are ready for the Blue Pencil Cafe where you can get the burning eye(s) of an industry pro fixed on you and your work! We have @_rebeccab, @david_demchuk and Ira Nayman ready to pass judgment upon you! Go here: can-con.org/blue-pencil-ca…

EVERYTHING IS HAPPENING! Our Friday workshops are now open for signups! We have amazing opportunities to work with @julieczerneda, @LydiaMHawke and @arleysorg that you don't want to miss! Go here: can-con.org/friday-worksho…

STEP RIGHT UP! The #CanCon2023 Schedule is out! Come marvel at the Program of Myriad Excitements (tm)!! We are so excited and proud to bring you what we think is another great weekend of SFFHery and can't wait to see you in a few weeks!! can-con.org/schedule/
