Need help!

I gotta come up with a theme/motto/whatever for ConDFW 2016 to use for the PR.



Our two author GoH are John Scalzi and Seanan McGuire. Which is awesome! However, there's not a clear similarity between the two to pick out for the theme. (We do not have an artist GoH yet, so I don't have art to mine for ideas yet.)

Anyway, I've gotta do an ad for the WhoFest program book this April, and if I don't have a theme, I'm going to be forced to do something like:

HEY!
You know what?
ConDFW's got
JOHN SCALZI
and
SEANAN MCGUIRE
for 2016 and it's
going to be
AWESOME!
You should come!

So, yeah.

Both are people who have opinions and state them well and loudly? That's what I come up with ^^

Thanks. :) I still haven't come up with anything, but for this ad I ended up going with the theme of a slightly grubby concert flyer (http://i.imgur.com/g6HViat.jpg). I may end up sticking with that idea for the rest of it. XD

Old Zombie's War?

Bonus author Mira Grant gives you everything from SF to Faerie to Zombies (unless Seanan wants/needs to keep that nym separate)?

Set up just their names inside a cross-word puzzle to carry forward the announcement theme?

She's fine with Grant being on the PR, but not as a separate guest, if that makes sense. (I guess she's had to deal with that before?)

What I ended up going with was a slightly grubby concert flyer (http://i.imgur.com/g6HViat.jpg) for this ad. If only it were in color, so I could use that traditional pink-yellow-green (https://www.google.com/search?q=pink+yellow+green+concert+poster&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=BM0aVaiqGoqjyQTs74C4DA&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAQ&biw=1272&bih=939) look!
