My feeling is that the performance at Worldcon of Dune The Musical will be eligible for the 2025 Hugo Awards. The musical has been performed previously but that specific performance took place in 2024.

Happily doing my dangerous edits now with the #Worldcon2024 Philharmonic playing in the background. 😁 #Glasgow2024 #ForOurFutures (hopefully music will soothe the savage manuscript and it won't cut me again)

I didn't take many pictures at Worldcon. Here's a scene from Dune! The Musical, the bar where the Worldcon pub crawl kicked off, my final collection of ribbons, and a pile of stuff I brought home with me from Glasgow.

Thanks to the Alasdair Gray panel this morning we knew to add Ubiquitous Chip to our tour of Glasgow's west end. And at Óran Mòr we got a peek at his auditorium mural (ask the staff nicely)!

Really enjoying this panel on Zardoz and not just because I wrote at least some of the programme description.

So, my "From Kalasatama to the Suicide Tower" talk went well and our room was nicely packed. Two things became clear. First, there is more to say about how recent Finnish SF tries to approach tensions inherent to democracy. I'll get to writing on that soon. Second, introducing Finnish SF to anglophone audiences reveals demand for translations!

Let's see if I can make the first pub of the Worldcon pub crawl before the people already there have moved on. #Worldcon #Worldcon2024 #PubCrawl

We love to shine a light on the volunteers who help keep the British Fantasy Society running—this month, we meet the human who recently joined the BFS Horizons team to represent the fantasy art world. It's time to meet Jenni Coutts!
Jenni will host a meet-up for artists and illustrators interested in submitting to the BFS at Worldcon - catch her in Hall 4 at 10am on Monday

Envious of my friends (including some St A CS folks!) who are heading to the #Glasgow #Worldcon this week. Sadly though we have in person attending tickets we can't go. I'm far too seriously ill now to manage it. Plus the infection risk is too high for severely #immunosuppressed me. We can use the #streaming part of our tickets though, both during the event, and on catchup after through to Christmas. So will get to see lots. Have fun folks going! #Covid #GlasgowWorldcon #Worldcon2024

'Once upon a time, over the gravity well and far away, there was a magical land where they had no kings, no laws, no money and no property, but where everybody lived like a prince, was very well-behaved and lacked for nothing.'

Been browsing the Glasgow Worldcon programme. 8-12 August 2024. Sadly I can't attend in person as hoped. I'm too ill now with my progressive neurological disease. But going to use my paid membership's online viewing options to watch dozens of events. Recordings up till 31 Dec. https://guide.glasgow2024.org #Glasgow #Scotland #Worldcon #Worldcon2024 #GlasgowWorldcon #Scifi #Fantasy #Horror #Fandom #Conventions #WSFS #streaming

This a review I wrote ten years ago but the novel remains a contemporary classic: Michel Faber, The Book of Strange New Things (2014).
