I’m excited for Seattle in less than a month. I’ll get to see Amy K, Laura Q, Katherine Cross, as well as getting to meet Katie P, Glenn W, Sylvia M. and others off-line for the first time ever. I’ll be on this panel at GeekGirlCon –  “Stealing White People’s Superheroes”

Also staying a couple days past #GGC15 so I can do a bit of touristy stuff since Laura is being kind enough to host me. Are there any tips or suggestions for MUST SEE things in Seattle?

Who else do I know is going to Geek Girl Con? Lemme know so we can meet up hopefully.
