She is hosting a get together at Balticon with Wen Spencer, author of Alian Taste, Tainted Trail and Bitter Waters, finalist for this year's John W. Campbell Award, past winner of Balticon's Compton Crook award. The get together will take place in Madeleine's hotel room at noon this Saturday. A notice listing the room number should be posted on the Party Room Board. --cathy green --- Madeleine Yeh <yeh at algx.net> wrote: > Date: Tue, 20 May 2003 16:33:28 -0400 > From: Madeleine Yeh <yeh at algx.net> > To: tcrepeau at erols.com > CC: myeh at algx.net, Dalek_CAG at yahoo.com, > ejablow at cox.net, > george_shaner at yahoo.com, dsarnold at algx.net > Subject: [WSFA] Meet Wen Spencer ( author of Alien Taste ) > > Dear Book Group; > Well it looks like Wen Spencer will be willing to > meet > with > the book discussion group and anyone else at > Balticon. > This will be at my hotel room ( which I won't know > until > Saturday ), on the Party floor ( if all goes well ) > at 12:00 > noon.
