Hey, Easterners! Particularly you lot in Boston!

I suspect a lot of you would enjoy the Boston Strowlercon event, which is coming up awfully soon (Canadian Thanksgiving/Columbus day Weekend, October 8-10). I know a bunch of the people who have shows over the weekend and they're all worth your time, and I find the greater worldbuilding they're trying to do interesting, and not just because it's set in Cascadia. (...not that this doesn't help... XD ) I've seen some of the video from the smaller St. Louis event, and it looked like people were having a good time.

So if you're into maker/DIY culture, circus arts, music, things like that, go check out the Strowlers website, see what you think. s00j has been posting about it here (volunteers in particular) and here (setting mood) and probably other places I don't know about.

(Full disclosure: I've provided some advice and I know a bunch of these people. However, I am not appearing, and have no financial interest of any sort.)

If you're one of those people who reads my LJ directly: new song!

I uploaded a new song! The full post is only a few hours old (as I write this, anyway), and is here. But since there've been a couple of extra posts since then I wanted to put a pointer at top. Here's a player if you don't want to scroll down, but there's a lot about this song in the post, so I encourage you to do so:
