TODAY ONLY (not an April Fool's joke. and god do I hate even having to say that)

Just for today, you can get con tickets to Wincon for only $90!

Did you know that starting this year Wincon is no longer just about the Winchesters? It's going multi-fandom, so you can come squee about slash dragons or vampires or comics or people getting space married or glambulges and guyliner even if you couldn't care less about two brothers in an Impala.

Wincon is a by the fans, for the fans operation. Our goal is to provide an annual multifandom gathering for fanfen and provide a safe space for women and under-represented fans of pop media in all it’s infinite varieties (just like us) to come and meet, hang out, discuss their shows or fandoms, the fic written about them, the fanart made for them, party and have a good time. In other words, a giant slumber party where we can all do the fannish things we do online in person and in our pajamas (or whatever you feel like wearing!) No official personnel from any show or fandom is affiliated with this convention, nor will there be any appearances by any show actors, celebrities, writers, or other personnel.

This year it's in Chicago, and the hotel is rumoured to be awesome! I've been the last two years and had an absolutely amazing time. I cannot recommend it enough. If you've been thinking about coming, today is definitely the day to get tickets. And if you haven't thought about coming, you definitely should! Poke your friends. Get them to come along. It's amazing.

I think we were all in danger of doing damage to each other (and ourselves) by the end of it. And then we got to share the joy! Such a magical weekend. :D
