For all Bay Area buffistas:
I''ve got a short story in an anthology (The Best of PariSalon4665) and we're having a semi-private launch party in San Francisco. The "semi-private" means that I'm posting on the public board, but let me know if you want to come.
Details:
Where: BUILD, at 483 Guerrero Street
When: Sunday, 24 November, 3-6 PM
Nosh and drink and signings and fun and whatnots, and the book will be there, for sale, available if wanted, but of course, not necessary to buy; feel free to come and check it out and have a cookie and some pleasing liquids.
Let me know if you're coming, or think you might: sf_deb@yahoo.com

The radio station for which I volunteer is having their annual Fundraiser. Last year we raised $75,000. I personally raised almost $4,400 of that during my 2 hour Friday morning shift. This year, we'd like to match those numbers.
Please consider helping us out, especially if you've enjoyed my radio program over the airwaves or over the web. We have a secure on-line pledge form. There are nifty thank-you gifts, like t-shirts, if you pledge over a certain amount. More information is here:

ATTN: New England Buffistas, especially those near Boston
You know, it just dawned on me that I don't remember seeing this mentioned here. Nick Brendon will be at the Bayside Expo Center this coming Sunday at the Hobby Star Convention. The convention runs from Friday night through Sunday, but Nick will only be appearing on Sunday.

Just to supplement Cindy's announcement a bit, Anthony Simcoe and Gigi Edgely will also be at the show, along with Michael Dorn and Nichelle Nichols.
If any other NYCistas want to join us & maybe meet up for dinner beforehand, DH and I will be seeing HPCoS tomorrow night at Kips Bay at 10:15.
The Leonid meteor shower is Mon-Tues. Nov. 18-19. Good viewing from about 11 PM to dawn. The shower may produce meteors upwards of 5,000/hour. If you can find someplace away from city lights, where you can keep warm & lie down/rest your head, it should be great. Last year's was amazing.
Some letters to the editor in SciFi Weekly made it in with mentions and links for the Save Farscape and Support Firefly campaigns.
