Still mostly sleeping after WisCon. Feel duty-bound to write up Fogcon (from March) before I get to WisCon -- which may mean I write up nothing.

Lovely fan-fam dinner last night with [personal profile] mrcreek
[personal profile] wintercreek, [personal profile] sasha_feather, [personal profile] commodorified, [personal profile] were_duck,[personal profile] sassbandit, [personal profile] laceblade.

We were talking about the minimal critical specifications for teen movies -- as you do -- and the differences between boys' and girls' school experiences were contemplated.

Which made me think of Ju Gosling, who's a disabled performance artist who, more recently, has undertaken a study of British (female) fans of girls' boarding school stories.

Just to state the obvious, in case you need to hear it from someone else: you are not, in fact, duty-bound to write about FOGCon first (or ever). So I say write about WisCon now if it is on your mind!

Even as someone who would love to see more people talking about FOG....nah, just write about whatever the hell you feel like writing about. Seriously. :)

I love the term "fan-fam" - right on!
