Hi! I don't think we talked at the con either, at least not this year (but maybe in previous years? Your Twitter profile photo looks familiar, anyway), but thanks for coming by. :)

Anyway, it's been heartening to hear that it's not just me who feels this way. I wonder if there are cons that do a better job of connecting people who don't know each other. Events like this year's Meet & Greet are a start -- unfortunately I couldn't attend because it was up against a panel I really wanted to see, but I would have made it a top priority in my first or second year. I don't know if it would have helped, but it certainly wouldn't have hurt.
