More important than me having a good #capclave, I think everyone there had a good Capclave. There were a *ton* of great panel topics, with both good participant discussion and good audience questions.

Next year's GOHs are Nino Cipri & Rebecca Roanhorse. So looking forward!

Howdy!
I'm Elektra, and my joy today is that I'm here and feeling up to participating in #Writephant - yay!

I'm also still happy from my weekend spent at the 25th Capclave, a genre convention focused on small press. They had super special GOHs: Joe & Gay Haldeman, and Naomi Kritzer. All-in-all it was a great con!

My panels went great (even the 3 I moderated), no *ad hominem* attacks! and folks laughed at the funny parts in my reading

My program schedule for @capclave.bsky.social this weekend. Come to my reading to hear a new scene from the #WIP. I can't wait to see how it plays with an audience.

Today I'm finding joy in the absolutely awesome time I had this past weekend at Capclave, the amazing SF convention run every year by WSFA, where they give out the WSFA Small Press Awards.

In honor of tonight's theme, I'm also finding joy in a wee dram of Highland Park (18 y.o.), because I deserve it.

Got to meet some of the other “zombie authors” at the Zombies Need Brains launch party at Capclave! They publish a bunch of wonderful anthologies, including SOLAR FLARE, featuring my story “Walking Through Fog”. 🌞🌱

Spotted in the #Capclave dealers room! Copies of my #solarpunk novella and one of my anthologies!

Also, surprisingly, the #urbanfantasy I published under the pen name Kira Brinamon! 😲

After the sff romance panel at #capclave I kept thinking someone should write a book called Meet Cute in a Meat Suit.

I'm giving a reading tomorrow at #Capclave and I still haven't decided what it's going to be. Come see me and be just as surprised as I am!

I can't be at #Capclave this weekend, because I have to go stand in a muddy field in upstate New York (as you do).

However, my story “In the Belly of the Whale”, from the superb anthology “Trenchcoats, Towers & Trolls”, is a finalist for the #WFSA #SmallPressAward. If by some miracle it wins, @sarenaulibarri has very kindly offered to deliver my acceptance speech.

Have fun at Capclave everyone, & I'm sorry I can't join you. I hope it's great.

Oh, and direct link to the book if you'd like to read Angus McIntyre's award-nominated story! It's a wonderful #GenreMashup and the whole anthology has some real gems.
