I'm Not at Balticon


Yes, I'm not at Balticon and haven't been for many years. Some of the reasons are practical, such as having to drive into downtown Baltimore and haul my luggage and art pieces in the streets, and some are artistic - how many more scenes and characters from "A Game of Thrones" can I stand. I've spent most of my recent years doing winery portraits for my upcoming art book, "Virginia Under Vine." So I'm not at Balticon but many of my friends are and I miss them. By the end of a day or so many of them have entered into an exhausted and overstimulated coma, rather like this fellow who collapsed onto a couch in 2003.
