See you in Albuquerque NEXT WEEKEND (yay!!).

Secretary for Mythopoeic Conferences

The good news: Grace Lin is expecting a baby! The bad news: the timing makes
being our GOH at Mythcon 43 unworkable.

The good news: Malinda Lo, author of 'Ash' and 'Huntress' (etc.) has agreed to
be our new author GOH and her work is wonderfully apt for our theme. NO BAD
NEWS!

I encourage you to register for Mythcon 43 Real Soon Now as the prices will be
going up early in the new year.

Every three years the Council of Stewards needs to be elected by the membership.
We didn't have any candidates nominated to the existing slate at Mythcon 42 in
Albuquerque this summer so the current crop of Stewards, being willing to
continue in their respective positions, solicits your vote!

All Mythopoeic Society members should have received a ballot, either
electronically if that's how you receive Mythprint, or by mail (the email came
from The Mythopoeic Society on November 16, 2011 - at least it did for me!).

PLEASE remember to vote and get your votes in to our Recording Secretary, Gerry
Holmes, either by email secretary AT mythsoc DOT org or mail to:
      Geraldine Holmes
      3760 Earls Court View
      Cincinnati OH  45226-1968

DEADLINE is December 15, 2011 - coming right up!

Hello friends,

Lynn Maudlin here, secretary for Mythopoeic Conferences, and I wanted to let you
know that our originally scheduled Scholar Guest of Honor for Mythcon 44
<http://www.mythcon.org>, Dr. Christopher Mitchell, director of the Wade Center
in Wheaton, had a major life-change and gave us his regrets (he's moving from
Illinois to California this summer, making it too big a challenge to *also* be
our GOH).

But never fear! Intrepid Mythcon chair Marion VanLoo has acquired for us Douglas
A. Anderson, winner of the Mythopoeic Scholarship Award in Inklings Studies for
"The Annotated Hobbit" in 1990, and this is an especially appropriate pairing of
guest and theme - after all, there's a lovely hobbit-hole for our conference
logo this year.

Please note the Call For Papers, Registration, and Room & Board are also linked
on that same page.

See you in Michigan this summer!
