Various scheduling conflicts this year will make it impossible for me to attend any science fiction conventions. This is disappointing because I was so looking forward to the World Science Fiction Convention in Kansas City this summer. It is also disappointing because it means, for the second year in a row, I will be unable to attend my local convention, Capclave, in October.

I think this will be the first year since I began attending conventions in 2007 that I will go the entire year without going to a convention.
