Thank You!

Many thanks to the convention committee, the Guests of Honour, guests and conrunners, gophers, et c, for making this a wonderful con. Thanks also to the THS Student Association for housing the con.

A very special thanks to Meike from Germany, Lise from Denmark, and Charlie from Sweden, for a very good discussion about the Hugo-nominated short stories.

Cheers!

SFJournalen Eurocon tweets too

SFJournalen (my newszine) also tweets from Eurocon. Not too much before the con, but during the events I hope to bring you all kinds of little newspieces of things going on, straight from the floor. I have earlier sometimes made “special convention issues” – too much work! So Twitter replaces that.
Follow @SFJournalen – and it will be in English.
