NIGHT WATCH Small Press Room  
Of course, the Small Press Room is the place to be on Saturday night during Radcon. It's always a great time, filled with fabulous conversation, food, drink, "bed"capades (cough cough) and other forms of socializing!

There are too many pictures to post here, so if you want to see ALL the pics, see the full Flickr set from Radcon here.

Here's another set from [info]mikigarrison


Ken Scholes signs a copy of his Fairwood story collection Long Walks, Last Flights & Other Strange Journeys for Manny Frishberg, who won it during the small press room raffle.


The small press party is always well attended. There's a back room too.
 

You can't hide that Diet Coke from me, Miki Garrison!


Looks like Tina Connelly snagged one of those copies of Lamentation from Ken Scholes, and is pretty happy about it.


Rose, Stacey and Marti raffle off a plethora of small press books and swag.


Keffy Kehrli says, "Do you see the killer rabbit? Look at the bones!"


Me, with a photo op with the lovely Lindsey Johnson


All SIX of these small press partygoers are having a great time. (Six, get it? Jen Scholes has twins in the oven!)
From L to R: Miki Garrison, Lindsey Johnson, LJ Bothell, and Jen.


Ken Scholes and Scott Magner. It ain't water in that bottle that they're sharing...  ;)


Jay Lake and Shannon Page are happy to be at the party


First the infamous bed-dancing at Norwescon. Now this?!


Marti McKenna and Stacey Janssen chronicle the hijinks for Red Rocket Station.


Janna and Skipper seem to like each other well enough.


The party ended with a wild game of Hearts in the back room.  Miki "The Dark Queen" Garrison managed to squeak out the win.

Thanks for posting pictures, Patrick. Even though it's been two years since I've been to RadCon, this year with us relocated in Arizona I find I especially miss that convention and everybody there. :-(

We DO miss you guys! I don't even have that poster that's behind your head in your icon anymore, but got something bigger and spiffier.

Nawwww... folk & people & stuff! So adorable, them. And you.

Awww. ;) Great to see you, of course!

Hee! You're so right. And if I hadn't had con-sleep to catch up on, I'd be done with it, too!

Ken read the Prologue and first chapter tonight at his reading/signing. It went well! I've got the book on my bedstand.

It was super fun seeing you again! The small press room is THE BEST! So, um, I hurried back to buy things and you had cleared out alla your stuff. :( Will have to order online, the old impersonal way.

That hearts game was one for the books. Some day I swear we will have our revenge.

This is Skipper, btw. :)

Yeah, they had to kick us out of the room, so we kind of had to make a hasty exit. Sorry! But the website is ALWAYS open. ;)

The Hearts revenge may come soon, since Blunt and I are lobbying for a death match at Miki's the last day of Feb.
