Neil Williamson always has something interesting and perceptive to say, this alone would be reason enough to go to PictCon2.

Greatly enjoyed the first Pictcon, held yesterday in Perth, Scotland. Fascinating panel discussions and fun barcon. The event fits in nicely with Cymera and Satellite, plus next year’s British Fantasy Convention in Glasgow and Eastercon the year after in the same city.

We are up to 30! 20 more to go to reach minimum numbers.

We've sold 26 tickets for PictCon2! I would love to sell 24 more before I pay the deposit next week.
