Norwescon 2016 (the 39th Norwescon) is spinning up, and projects are well underway. I’m not part of it this year, but the festival I started – nwcMUSIC – absolutely is, and needs all the people it can get. I’ve talked about this before in some depth<\/a>, of course, but in short form, it was time for me to step away and hand the reins to someone else, so that’s what I’m doing.<\/p>\n

Now, they’ll be dividing my job up into many nice bite-sized pieces, so you don’t have to go all in at once. They’ve filled a couple of positions – daytime programming director, for example, which is a big one – but are without doubt still looking for more. The first all-hands meeting is September 19th<\/a>, just eight days away, in SeaTac. It would be really great<\/em> if anyone and everyone interested would show up. Or, if you’re interested but can’t make that meeting, let them know that, too.<\/p>\n

Also, as I’ve said before, I will totally dump information at you. I will be a resource. I have a lot<\/em> of institutional knowledge and I want<\/em> to share it in order to keep this thing going. So, hie thee off to Norwescon<\/a> and volunteer with Programming (for daytime events) or Special Events (for concerts and other large event items). Opportunities are available now<\/em>.<\/p>\n

To speak honestly: while it is definitely time for me to step away from the organisational side for a while, I’ve had some amazing experiences building nwcMUSIC, and met a lot of awesome people running events at Norwescon. It seems pretty damn likely you will too. Give it a shot, and find out for yourself.<\/p>\n
