Hello Baltimore! I’m typing from my hotel room across from the Baltimore Conventionj Center where, for the next three days 25,000 people will be wandering around in pursuit of anime- and manga- related activities and stuff.
Yuricon/ALC Publishing has a table in the Otakon Dealer’s Room, table #408, next to Nekocon and behind Anime Pavilion. We’re offering great deals on 100% yuri from ALC Publishing, and you can even get your copy of Shoujoai no Bouken: The Adventures of Yuriko autographed by the author and the illustrator!
Onna! is also offering a deal to all Otakon-goers. Our three-day festival of women’s roles in animation and comics is offering a $15 discount off the full three-day registration – that’s only $35 for three days of Onna!!
And don’t forget to join us on Friday, August 19th at 11:30 PM in Panel Room 1 for Otakon’s first-EVER yuri panel. How cool is that? :-)
So I’ll expect to see you all sometime this weekend, right? :-)
i ran a Yuri panel at acen….haah no comment, but i’d love to take some time with someone willing and able to assist me (teach?) in doing a better and a more appropriate task of it for next year.
Hi there –
I’d love to assist. A good thing to start with would be the “What is Yuri” essay on the Yuricon website: http://www.Yuricon.org/essays/whatisYuri.html
That’ll give you anice overview of the history of the word.
