Random comments overheard at Convolution 2014 this past weekend, stripped of their conversational context and written as a list in the order they floated by:
“I can set out the tablecloth once.”
“I’ve already cut you there, and you’re going to bleed out.”
“I’m back again. Again.”
“I’m on my way to the kinky panel. I’m a good sister.”
“I have trouble openings things anyway. Lace gloves don’t help.”
“I have a pen. Do you have a pen?”
“Thankfully, someone was hurt, so it was transferred off my desk.”
“I’m having so much bustle and ruffle envy right now.”
“Number one rule of costuming: go to the bathroom first.”
“We are going to do a video of me.”
“She has achieved cleavage!”
What was convolution? It sounds VERY interesting!
Convolution is a local science fiction and fantasy convention, small enough (approximately 800 people) to be cozy but large enough to be jam-packed with entertaining and informative panels and activities, like the costume masquerade.
Oh, I love science fiction! It sounds like you are mentoring writers.
I teach writing in my day job, but that’s probably not what you mean by “mentoring.” 🙂
