SF Conventional Calendar

by Erwin S. Strauss

Don’t forget the Glasgow WorldCon later this year, and Seattle in 2025. Plan now for social weekends with your favorite SF authors, editors, artists, and fellow fans. For an explanation of our con(vention)s, a sample of SF folksongs and info on fanzines and clubs, send me an SASE (addressed, stamped #10 [business] envelope to 10 Hill St. #22-L, Newark NJ 07102. The hot line is (973) 242-5999. If a machine answers (with a list of the week’s cons), leave a message, and I’ll call back on my nickel. When writing cons, send an SASE. For free listings, tell me about your con five months out. Look for me at cons behind a Filthy Pierre badge, playing a musical keyboard. –Erwin S. Strauss
