Imperialism Redux, Cut-Off and Sunday Morning Coming Down

For those who were asking, PicoCon now have a payment portal up for those wanting to buy tickets – it’s live on the Con website here.

You’ll see from the timetable they’ve posted that I’m giving my Guest of Honour address on Sunday morning at 10.30 – something which doesn’t scare me as much as it once would have.  In fact, it doesn’t scare me at all, Baldrick. Twenty months of fatherhood have made me into an entirely tougher, more functional person in the hours before noon.  These days I laugh in the face of six am wake-ups, and tweak the nose of the dreaded breakfast by pre-dawn light.  By 10.30 I’ll have been awake for hours.  So have no fear, bring your hangovers and your come-downs along, and I promise not to talk too violently or make any loud bangs.

See you there!

postscript on the Great January Signing Sale – there are still a few orders coming in, still a few spare copies kicking around, so I’m going to keep channels open for another couple of weeks.  But after that, I’m really going to have to wrap up – not least so I can put remaining stock back on my shelves and vacuum the office floor.  So if you’ve stumbled in late, or are suddenly the recipient of an unexpected tax refund and don’t know what to do with your newfound wealth, then jump right in.  The hard cut-off date is Friday Feb 16th, just before I head out to Imperial.  Any requests I receive on or before that Friday will be fulfilled, anything after will……….fall…………into……….the………….void……..
