And let's not forget the crochet hook. I don't go anywhere without a
crochet hook, which means that I can whip up all sorts of necessities
and luxuries at a moment's notice, out of anything remotely threadlike.

Am I the only one who -- when trying to sign up at the "holding"
page -- keeps getting a message saying that my e-mail address is
invalid? The very same e-mail address with which I send and receive all
my e-mail.... It's very discouraging...

For decades my kids have been insisting that my husband and I should give up traveling by car and use the airlines instead. So much more convenient, they told us; so much more comfortable; so much less boring. So, it being a very long drive from our place to and from Norwescon, we decided to give that a try.

Never -- never -- again. [Maybe in a horrendous emergency; otherwise .... never again.] Especially after I had to be taken away and searched down to bare skin level by two very pleasant TSA women -- several times, without anything ever being found to explain why I was setting off the metal detectors.

I'm assuming it wasn't my face that was setting off the metal detectors, but I could be wrong.

I'm grateful to SFWA, which has been a great help to me over the decades, and plan to hang in there while it grows up. And somebody should mention the free websites SFWA provides for its members, as well as the flawless and speedy service for those websites.
