Since this is FaffCon's birthplace, and VO-BBers its midwives, I thought I should give you a quick heads-up:

FaffCon is capped at 100
We're already at 64
There's always a little rush near the early bird deadline...
Which is this Friday at midnight (Pacific)

If you're coming, you might consider jumping on it!

cool

I was going to wait until the last possible second before the Early Bird special expired -- 'cause that's how I roll -- but Faffy's warning encouraged me to pull my thumbs out of their traditional parking place and get with the program NOW.

As they say in all the best account-executive-written radio spots, "I'm glad I did."

BTW, if you Google "Faffcon" you get more than 11,000 hits!

"... but wait, call now and you get not one, but TWO FaffCons for one LOW price... our agents are standing by!"

... er, does this mean I'll get a free FaffCon 4 with my FaffCon 3? cool

Hopeful, aren't I Smile

all you have to do is pay for shipping & handling.


... but MAN is there a lot of handling.

That's the best part of Faffcon, all the handling!

And I can't go. I'll have to miss all the hands-on, er, I mean handling. Now we are finding out what FaffCon truly was meant be.

I thought I was going to make it (LOVED Portland), then I realized that I'd be nearing critical mass right around that time - we're doing extensive remodeling right now, preparing the house for my parents to move in with us in....

September.

**sigh**
I really enjoy all the handling (aka 'faffling') and don't mind the shipping too much, but I'm going to have to wait until things settle here a bit.

Sadly, I shall not make it this time to the CooCooForCocoaville follies (hey, two outta three ain't bad). I've decided to pour my remaining self-edumacation dollars for the year into a two-day seminar with one of the VO consulting luminaries who's visiting our fair city later this month. I've never been to one of these, even though I've taught a few, but I guess better late than never.

Amy, do you have any tentative dates/location for Faffcon 4 and 5 in 2012? As soon as you know, can you let us know? I'd then pencil it in and be able to plan around it. This time, I didn't know the dates for Faffcon 3 until after I'd already agreed to this other project I'm committed to at the same time. These guys usually book me six to eight months in advance (or even a year), so knowing Faffcon dates would allow me to do their gigs AND spend quality time with Faffy more often.
