Great things are afoot on Tumblr...
Namely, that a group of us over there are breaking ground on the first ever (that we know of) Young Wizards convention. Right now the place to go for information is crossingscon.tumblr.com, which I run (I'm robotamputee over there, btw *waves*), and which I've been keeping up to date on the latest happenings.
The plan so far, for those interested:
It's going to be a mostly Young Wizards-centric convention, though we intend to feature some of DD's other works, as well as other lit/sci-fi/fantasy fandoms (interest permitting).
It's going to be held in or near New York City, NY (venue to be determined). There's plans for a YW-themed city tour as well, which would be optional and take place the day before/after the con.
It'll be in the summer of 2016, and while we don't have specific dates nailed down, we're currently thinking somewhere around the first week of July.
Badge prices are projected to be about $50, with accommodation/travel/food/etc being extra.
If any of you are interested in attending, and especially if you feel fairly certain you can make it out there, please let us know here, as we want to get an idea of the expected attendance earlier rather than later. In the next couple of days I'll be posting a second survey, asking about things like panels, the tour, activities, and any ideas you might have regarding the con.
If you have any questions, feel free to bug me here, on Tumblr, or via the CrossingsCon email, which is thecrossingscon@gmail.com. For now, any and all con updates will be posted both to the Tumblr blog and this thread. There are also Facebook and Twitter pages, where links to all updates will be posted as well.
That's all I've got for now! Hope you can make it out, cousins
