I don't know yet whether I'll be Stateside or in Japan this summer, which obviously makes it impossible to plan the summer cons, and I probably won't know for sure about that until early March. (Note to self: fill out relevant applications this week.) I really want to go to Sirens, WFC, and PCA, though that last depends on writing a decent paper for it.

But, yeah. Who else is going to be where? Are there any other cons on the west coast I should know about? (I'm aware of Fanime and SakuraCon.)

Yeah, it's probably a bit of a stretch, but I've heard good things about WFC, and you and some other people I know are going to be there for sure, which makes it more attractive this year.

I could see eventually settling into alternating between WFC and Sirens ... (except, there's this Monsters panel I do want to propose ...)

Oh, you have to come for Sirens! I'm still trying to figure out how to wing it financially, but monsters and women? YES.
