Needless to say, I am rather gobsmacked to be on this many panels, much less alongside some of the *names* present. I mean, I will be positively out of place at the Resnick book signing. All the big people, and me. Gulp. Still, I admit excitement. Last year I did not put my name in for any panels, because I figured who cares what some new guy has to say. This year, I get to pretend like I'm Somebody!
