So, here we all are. The convention will start any time now. We have done the signing at Chapters. Very shortly Juliet and Chaz will do a book launch, which I am planning to video. Meanwhile, there has been chat.

I have been talking to Frank Darcy’s family. The are lovely people, as doubtless you could have guessed from reading about Frank. There will be a Toast to Life event on Sunday. More of that later.

I have also been talking to Charlie Stross about Laundry novels, and giggling myself stupid. Can’t say any more about that until the next book comes out, but there certainly are more on the way. Also you can’t get a copy of Saturn’s Children anywhere in Dublin. I am putting this down to it being a Hugo nominee.

In other news, Paul Cornell is here, Kim Newman is here, lots of other people are here. I will doubtless blog more later.
