All three of my panels done for @octocon.bsky.social - had an awesome time and some really great chats, now going to fall over for a wee bit (by way of some painkillers, because I have done something Fun and Interesting to my shoulder) and then catch up on everything I missed :D

Congratulations to our #Octocon2026 cosplay parade winner Seth Tuohy who was dressed as the Wicked Witch of the East from the Wizard of Oz - complete with a wicker handbag shaped like a house and sparkly red converse! Excellent cosplay!! Thanks to Kat for moderation & Karina for her help!
