Science fiction and fantasy fans hold conventions all over the world; in North America there's at least one convention going on somewhere just about every weekend. Conventions provide opportunities for readers and writers of SF to get together and discuss their shared interests -- among other things. I started attending conventions back in 1980, and have gone to at least one or two almost every year since -- sometimes as just another member, sometimes as guest of honor, or toastmaster, or in other roles.

• I plan to attend Norwescon 45, April 6-9, 2023 in SeaTac, Washington. I won't be on programming, just hanging out.
• It looks as if I'll be attending the Chengdu Worldcon, October 18-22, 2023 in Chengdu, China. I have not made any attempt to sign up for programming.

Hope to see you somewhere!
