Sue's Dragon Con 2013 Schedule

Hi, I'm Sue.  On Saturday, I got a haircut with bangs for the first time in 18 years, and all for cosplay.  And I am an Anomaly.  Once again, I'll be attending Dragon Con, and once again, a few unsuspecting track directors have agreed to let me sit on panels.  Keeping in mind that everything at Dragon Con is tentative until it's over, here's where I expect to be:

Dragon Con 101 Meet Up!
Friday at 10:00am
American Sci-Fi and Fantasy Media Track (Marriot M302)
If you want to connect and and meet up with other DragonCon newbies, come to this casual meet and greet. This is an informal gathering.  (I am one of the veterans who has volunteered to be on hand to answer questions.)

Saturday at 7:00pm
