Re: Is anyone else totally not interested by the idea of cons at all?

[(Anonymous)]

Depends on the con. Huge massive PR cattle calls like ComiCon, Dragon*Con, Creation "events" yeah those don't interest me at all.

WorldCon, now that's something you go to ONCE in your life (when it's in your area) just to say you've been, I think. IDK. For me, it was an experience, but definitely not one I would repeat yearly. I..sort of...enjoyed(?) it? I mean, just to say I've done it, you know, attended this near-legendary historical event that has been occurring for the entire lifetime of fandom. But, eh. It really was like any other con (only on a bigger scale) and kind of all went by in a blur.

There was a literary con I attended for many years, but I knew people who attended as guests, so I ended up more going around with them (and raiding the used bookstore's tables in the dealer's room), so it was definitely a different experience than wandering around at WorldCon, figuring out where to start first, or standing in lineups for hours at one of the big cattle calls.

Wait, people only go to WorldCon once?? I know my experience is very atypical (daughter of a prominent SF writer), but I've been to more than 15 of them. And aside from the authors/artists/dealers, there are tons of people who are just fans who travel to attend them regularly if not annually. They're the people I grew up around, the ones who can't believe I'm a college grad and not a rugrat.

I'm quite curious as to which WorldCon you went to, I was probably there unless it was out of the US (only non-US WorldCon's I've done were Winnipeg '94 and Glasgow '05).

I would love to go to a WorldCon, but sadly it's never even close to my area :(
