"Don't waste any time mourning. Organize!"
-Joe Hill
My brother texted the family group chat this quote before he went to work today. I'm not in a good place this morning, but we can't lose ourselves to despair. I know I have a lot of anger right now, but getting into whose fault that is won't help anyone.
Dwelling on the people I will never forgive won't help anyone.
I'm not that optimistic, but hope is a choice we can still make. It's a hard one to make this morning, but I'm still going to do my best. We are where we are, and focusing on yesterday won't change that. We can only move forward, and save as many as we can along the way.
There will be a tomorrow because we're going to make sure there's a tomorrow.

October going to be Unagi Con THEN November will be the epic one month story
That is the plan
Hope is a wonderful thing to sell, but hard to get into those little boxes.
It’s easier if you crush it first. Also, if you can’t sell it, crushed hope is easier to recycle.
the best part of advertising a con right after yours is the question “who do you have as guest”
Usually you can get the “oh crap! I forgot to by my membership at con” crowd. I sold 5 memberships this way at a con a month or so after the my con.
Having announced the GoHs for next year at con also helped.
