Nominations for Bubonicon 42 Special Guests (2010) will take place 7:30 pm Friday, March 20, at Huff Studio. Mark your calendar if you’re interested. This meeting is open to everyone! You need not be a member of ASFS or a past attendee of Bubonicon to come and suggest possible guests. (However, a little research can be helpful in talking about why your nominee would be a great Bubonicon guest – titles of published work, where he/she lives, experiences at other cons.)
If you cannot attend but have suggestions, please get your nominations to Kristen or Craig by Wednesday, March 18.
