Further Confusion 2019 is this weekend, and every year it sneaks up on me just like this. Lulled into a false sense of normalcy by the end of the holiday season, I start to get into a pretty good groove when suddenly the third weekend of January taps me on the shoulder to remind me … Continue reading Further Confusion 2019

(Fandom) Further Confusion 2017
Further Confusion 2017 is right around the corner! Just two weeks after New Year's Day, the convention feels a lot closer to the holidays than ever before -- not that I'm complaining. Further Confusion actually feels like a part of the holiday season at this point, the last gasp of companionship and partying before we … Continue reading (Fandom) Further Confusion 2017
(Personal) A Glance Back, A Stare Forward
Further Confusion 2016 is in the books, and I for one am quite glad it's over. Not because the convention was terrible (it wasn't) or because there's something great on the horizon (but there is), but mostly because I have this small hoard of memories to treasure and sift through for the next few months. … Continue reading (Personal) A Glance Back, A Stare Forward
Rainfurrest 2015 Wrap-Up
Another Rainfurrest has come and gone, and I really loved the convention this year. The panels were fun and interesting, but more importantly I got to hang and chat with a bunch of people I had only known online -- JM Horse, Phil Geusz, Makyo and others in the [adjective][species] crew. There were a lot … Continue reading Rainfurrest 2015 Wrap-Up

There is a TON of great coffee to be had, which is handy when you're putting in those late nights at … Continue reading The Seven Panels of Rainfurrest 2015
Hey Furries, Meet Sci-Fi/Fantasy!
Further Confusion 2014 is in the record books now, and I'm sure I don't need to tell you it was a hell of a convention. There were nearly 3,600 attendees this year, and it felt like there was an unending parade of things to do, people to see and places to be. I had a … Continue reading Hey Furries, Meet Sci-Fi/Fantasy!
Rainfurrest 2013: Seattle Grunge
Last weekend I headed up to Seattle for the annual ode to anthropomorphics in the Pacific Northwest, Rainfurrest. It's a really nice convention, and it's positioned itself well -- in the crowded furry con landscape, I don't think there are too terribly many events in September. It's also one of the only conventions that makes … Continue reading Rainfurrest 2013: Seattle Grunge
