elrhiarhodanI've been chatting with fandom friends and it just so happens that one of the West Coast peeps will likely be on this side of the continent in early September, and she'd like to get together with other fangirls.
Personally, I think it's been too long between meetups.
The place we were at last November - the Marriott Residence Inn in Fairfax, VA - was lovely. The rates were very reasonable ($79 - $90 a night), the staff MORE than accommodating, there were restaurants within walking distance, and one that had no problem with separate checks for 18 people.
It would be a great place to go back to.
I don't need to spell out the virtues of fandom meetups, do I? The writing, the talking, the writing, the talking. The watching, the fangirling. Drinking and eating and hanging out and having fun.
In comments, let me know if you'd be interested in getting together in early September - probably the first weekend AFTER Labor Day. If we have enough interest, I'll talk to the hotel about a group rate.
