gizaA couple of weekends ago, I made a drive back out to Pittsburgh to attend Confluence, a science fiction convention with a emphasis on writing. As that suggests it wasn't nearly as "visual" as a furry convention or even as other science fiction conventions go. It was mostly about books, writing, and writing books. :-P
The Dorsai Irregulars were providing security for that convention, and I was asked if I would be willing to work a shift for them while I was out there. I ended up working what turned out to be a very easy shift -- it took place while the convention put on its annual play. Nearly everything else was closed, so the majority of attendees were watching the play. So I ended up walking all 6 stories of the hotel (stopping by the con suite for coffee, of course!) a few times during that shift and otherwise spent it doing door duty with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
renegade_di. (It kinda balanced out the shifts I worked at MagFest, in a Zen sotra way.)
Like I said, this was a largely literary convention. Case in point, this was the Dealers Room:
I also went to a few room parties:
And witnessed some origami porn:
The rest of my Confluence pictures can be found here. Enjoy!
