So it's official, I'm a Guest at Dragon*Con 2008! I don't think that I mentioned that before, although I've known that I would be a Guest since about a week after I posted the first article mentioning Dragon*Con. I have been waiting to see what panels I'd end up doing, because they hadn't gotten back to me at all. I finally got an e-mail from the programming comittee with my tentative schedule today (they may still make minor changes to the schedule).
So here's my tentative schedule:
