This is the quick Balticon summary:

I went to the Steampunk ball and did dancing.

I bought a bag for my dice (it’s kind of awesome for just being a leather bag. I’m amazed at how much fits in it).

I spent the LARP interviewing people.

Elevator parties are the best kinds of parties, especially…

Hey all!

More busy times at BSFS! The Book Discussion Circle is fully underway! Turnout for Red Mars in April (see the group photo) and Game of Thrones in May was excellent, and the discussion was lively and detailed!

A group of us went down to College Park to hear Samuel Delaney read from his newest book and answer questions, an amazing time had by all.

BSFS T-shirts will be available for sale for $10 at the May 12 business meeting, and at the BSFS fan table at Balticon.

Speaking of, because Balticon is in May, it will disrupt the normal schedule of BSFS events for May.

The monthly Anime Social, the 2nd Critique Circle, the 2nd Alphabet Soup Gaming, and the Book Discussion Circle and Social Meeting will not be held this month. The clubhouse will be crazy with things being moved to and from the hotel for Balticon.

Things will go back to normal for BSFS in June.

Hi all! Hope you’re well!

A lot of things happening at BSFS. Coming up, this Thursday from 6:30 to 8:30 pm is the Spec Fiction Critique Circle, for anyone writing sci-fi/fantasy, or who likes talking about writing. You don’t have to bring material to participate!

And finally, Saturday at 6:30 will be the debut of the Book Discussion Circle at BSFS! We’ll be discussing Kim Stanley Robinson’s, “Red Mars,” and then after that we’ll discuss a book every 4th Saturday of the month!
