Swancon 36, Natcon 50 follow-up post

I was going to post more stuff from Swancon, including a roundup of a few of the panels I attended and the things discussed. The truth is, my brain is a blur from all the awesomeness of the con and I don’t really have the time or inclination to discuss all the panels in detail. Suffice to say that it was all great and you should really check out a con if you haven’t before.

I have come across a couple more photos though, which I’d like to share. I’ve already mentioned Cat Sparks’ Flickr set, and there are enough photos in there to keep you occupied for ages. There’s also this Flickr set from Tom Bicknell, which is well worth a look. I’ll put a couple of his shots below that are personal favourites (for obvious reasons!)

Firstly, here’s a shot of the Oh zombie, my zombie panel. From left to right are Rob Hood, myself, Jason Nahrung and Grant Watson:

I mentioned in the previous Swancon post about the Ticonderoga Publications fifteenth birthday party, and associated launch of Dead Red Heart and More Scary Kisses. Here’s a shot of part of the signing at the launch. Nearest the camera is Pete Kempshall, then myself, then Joanne Anderton who is neatly masking Martin Livings and Carol Ryles at the end:

And finally, purely for the self-congratulatory nature of it, here’s Pete Kempshall enjoying a damn good book:
