Definitely Fourth Street
OK, I've been medically cleared to go to Minneapolis, so I will be going. But I'd better not get ill when I'm in the US. So, my panels for Fourth Street, which I believe still has a few memberships available if you hurry.

Reasons Things Go Wrong (in the crafting of stories). 7:30pm - 8:30pm Friday. Pamela Dean, Marissa Lingen, Sarah Monette, Catherynne Valente, Jo Walton.

Embracing Exposition. Exposition is your friend. No, really it is. 3:00pm - 4:15pm Saturday. Lois Bujold, Pamela Dean, Sarah Monette, Teresa Nielsen Hayden(M), Jo Walton.

Food Fashion and Fornication: what do these things say about the society in a particular story? 7:30pm - 8:30pm Saturday Karen Anderson, Magenta Griffith, Sarah Monette, Jon Singer, Catherynne Valente, Jo Walton (M)

How to Give and Take Critique 10:00am - 11:00am Sunday from editors, as a beta readers, in writers groups, or from your dog (how to take a critique from your cat would require its own panel, if not its own convention). Marissa Lingen, Beth Meacham (M), Michael Merriam, Jo Walton, Tom Whitmore.

The Stuff of Fantasy The technology of fantasy: what objects say about context, culture, and world. 2:45pm - 4:30pm Sunday Liza Furr, Elise Matthesen, Sarah Monette, Patrick Nielsen Hayden, Teresa Nielsen Hayden, Kathryn Sullivan, Jo Walton (M).

I have a membership and I can't go, alas, so if they've run out and someone wants in, I could ask Elise about transferring it.

My step-daughter Toni Brust didn't realize how much at the door would be, and failed to pre-register. Her dad is the co-head of programing, so you can see how this would be an embarrassing predicament. If you haven't already transferred it to someone you, like, actually know, she would really appreciate it.

I hadn't and I've just emailed Elise and registration to ask how to transfer it to your stepdaughter. Happy to help!

Those panels sound so incredibly interesting. Especially "Reasons things go wrong" and "How to give and take critique". Think there's any high chance of panel notes being posted by someone after the fact?

Lots of people did that last year, although, alas, the most thorough of them is not attending this year.

I, however, have a new laptop, a rapid typing speed, and as long as no one grabs me for hotel-necessary stuff mid-panel, intend to do substantial notes.

If the panelists don't object (and none has yet), there's a reasonable chance of them being posted.

Last year, some panels became podcasts.

Yay medical clearance! And that sounds a fun schedule.

Keep track of what you eat. You may have a food allergy. I have just been talking to a friend who has the blood pressure/breathing problems that you describe when she eats something on the verboten list.
