October is nearing it's end yet the scares are just now kicking into high gear. This weekend I'm headed to St. Pete to enjoy a favorite haunt, Necronomicon.

Necro is a science fiction, fantasy, horror convention that has been fan run since 1982. This con caters to it's local writers and artists and has hosted a great list of big names over the years. I'll be involved in a number of panels throughout the weekend, so head on over and say, "hi."

After we're done gabbing, writing, and drawing in panels, we'll be scarfing free ice cream, chugging some gourmet brewskis - erp, singing, and dancing... Hopefully not in that order. And that's just our Friday schedule. We'll probably be very ill like back in our college days and forced to wear dark sunglasses for Saturday. But hey, guess what? No one will notice as we'll blend right into the costumed crowd and start the fun all over again... Just do me a favor when you do come up to say, "hi." Please do it very quietly. An offer to buy me a coffee and chat quietly some where quiet would not be turned down at that point.

Bring your fun pants and I'll see you there!
