I have no voice and I have a pretty good suspicion whatever is ailing me must be cured with some variant of penicillin, but suffice to say that this year's Bouchercon is going to be talked about - in the best possible way - for a long, long time. Ruth Jordan and Judy Bobalik performed above and beyond in delivering what was an awesome party for 1500 or so of the mystery community's best and brightest.
Much, much more tomorrow, once I catch up on sleep.
UPDATE: Well, not quite. Have meds, have sleep, but sickness makes one rather slow. But if you thought you ran into me at the convention, perhaps not....
Great convention, everyone. Y'all rock!
I managed to video record most of the Guest of Honor Interviews. Two of them are already online, and I'll be getting the rest online this week.

Again, y'all rock! And thank you to Jon, Ruth, Judy, and everyone who helped to make this such an awesome event!

Wonderful! To me this Bcon felt a small block party for Ruth, Jon and Judy's 1500 or so close friends. Hope you feel better.
Cara also on antibiotics

It was great to see you in Baltimore, and so sorry you're not feeling well - hope the antibiotics work quickly.
And, Judy and the Jordans rock ;-)
Cheers,
Rae

thought of you this weekend with the B'con festivities and me missing it...is it weird that I've been at the last two, and have yet to write a mystery novel, or even pretend I care to write one? :) Did you do a "what not to wear" at B'con list? Because truly, the world needs it. miss you!

Nah, I'm sure it was you at a great Bouchercon.

There was an evil virus going around, one that could very well live up to the Rickards Flu from Chicago! But I would not forgo the illness in order to forgo the events of this weekend.
Sarah, adoration. Endless adoration.
