>This is interesting, though I have a really hard time traveling.  Where
can I find out info about these conferences?

ASIMOV'S provides a short list, but LOCUS magazine provides more news on the
SF/F/H community in general.  A subscription might be helpful.


>I do not deem a novel to be "horror" unless its primary aim is to
horrify.  I know that fellow list-member Lela Buis is quite sensitive
on this subject and would almost certainly disagree with me.

Eh?  I've mentioned detesting SF that's "infested" with horror, but that
distinguishes between what's primarily meant to be horror and what's meant to be
something else.  I just don't like surprises.  <grin>  People certainly have me
pegged now, don't they?
