I remember when this took more effort on my part.
So far, I'm a guest at the following: Marson, March 6-8, Minneapolis - fabulous medium-sized convention with many fun people in attendance. Recommended (http://www.marscon.org/2009/index.php).
CONvergence - July 4th weekend, Minneapolis. Huge fannish convention with something for everyone. Good times. Also recommended. (http://www.convergence-con.org/)
Gaylaxicon 2009 - October 9-11, in Minneapolis this year only. The epicenter of all things queer fandom. I've been to the last 2 of these in other parts of the country and had a blast. Fun people, interesting conversations, all good. http://www.gaylaxicon2009.org/
I'll be attending WisCon over Memorial Day weekend in Madison (http://www.wiscon.info/) and the Golden Crown Literary Conference (for lesbian writing) in lovely Orlando, July 23-26 (http://www.goldencrown.org/site/index.php/conference-conference/conderence-news). I will presumably be doing readings and panels at both.
I'll be doing a publication reading for Night's Kiss at True Colors Bookstore in Minneapolis sometime in February/March and a SASE SF/F reading at DreamHaven Books, Art and Comics sometime during the summer or beyond. I'll also be a guest on author Morven Westfield's podcast "Vampires, Witches and Geeks" sometime in the near future.
Other things that may or may not happen: I may be teaching a class at The Loft Literary Center next summer - still waiting to find out if my proposal was accepted.
I may be going to Diversicon in August, depending on the hotel air quality.
I may be in Chicago in June and reading at Women and Children First (this one is wildly iffy).
Saints and Sinners Literary Conference in New Orleans in May is even more iffy. They keep moving it closer to WisCon and I generally can't afford to do both.
Sexy Spring, if it happens. It was fun last year so I'd definitely do it again.
One or two other things that I'm waiting to hear back on. Looking pretty exciting already...

Date: 2009-01-02 04:31 pm (UTC)I'm so pleased to see all these neat things coming your way! Have enjoyed reading/hearing your work over the last year or two. You go grrl!
And, do post if you are going to do the Loft Class ... not sure if I am going to do something like that again but am thinking about it ...
Re: And a fun dance card it is!
Date: 2009-01-03 01:32 am (UTC)Hope you folks are doing well and that the holidays have been kind. Will you be at any of the conventions this year?
Re: And a fun dance card it is!
Date: 2009-01-05 06:37 pm (UTC)As for cons, we are signed up only for Convergence in July. It's been something of an odd struggle this year, getting to the cons. (Our house is overflowing with pets now and we have to hire babysitters if we want to do WisCon ...) Will you be at Convergence (reading or otherwise?)?
Re: And a fun dance card it is!
Date: 2009-01-07 02:07 am (UTC)How many pets is "overflowing?"
Re: And a fun dance card it is!
Date: 2009-01-10 05:23 pm (UTC)Um, er, well, ONLY 3 dogs & 3 cats. I suppose I have to count the birds in the backyard that I feed, everything from chickadees to two types of woodpeckers ... sigh ... if St. Paul allowed it we would also put up a fence and have a goat and chickens. We are nuts, basically. ;-)
