"Jackalope Wives," a story by Ursula Vernon, online in Apex Magazine.

(no subject)

Edit: FOUND IT. A rogue plugin. BAH.


If anyone here has Wordpress experience and wants to help me troubleshoot a problem,* PLEASE VOLUNTEER.

At the moment, for some reason the menu system on the ConDFW site is b0rked and I cannot add new pages to the menu. Which means that the Costume Contest page is not linked anywhere on the site as of yet. I can do a temporary fix and put an update about the contest on the home page, but that's not going to help anyone once the update ages off the home page. I am afraid that it might be the new Wordpress update that I just did, and I really do not have time to try to fix this: I've got the short story contest and program book to worry about at the moment. ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH

I can give you admin access to the site. THANK YOU to anyone who volunteers to help (I can give you free admission to the con if you're thinking of coming, or something off your Amazon wishlist or the like in recompense!)


* i.e., fix it for me.

EDIT: Oh, great, it's not just the menus. An internal search, when I'm linking something internally, hangs in precisely the same manner. ARGH. Possibly interaction between the theme and the new update. ARGH ARGH ARGH

While we're on the subject of ConDFW...

ConDFW is looking for someone to talk to about ahem, dragoon into heading a filk track! None of the current staff are filkers, and the filkers we've reached out to haven't responded yet.

So! If you attend ConDFW or know someone in the area who would, and filk, and want to perhaps becaome a shiny, happy, ConDFW staffer, please let me know

And one more ConDFW post!

Also, we've extended the deadline for the ConDFW short story contest to a week from Saturday, so if any of you are UNPUBLISHED writers, and have a speculative fiction story of some sort to submit, please do so! (Free if you attend the con, $5 if you're not attending; the entry fee funds the prizes we give.)

A note: if any of you on my f-list decide to enter, please let me know so I can recuse myself from judging. Although I'm setting things up so the judging will be anonymous, I do not wish there to be any accusations of bias.

Please feel free to pass this on!
