It would be a disservice to this gentleman to call him simply “author guest of honor.” Oh, his solo works and collaborations certainly merit that title — but in addition, he’s also superb editor. Relied upon by friends and colleagues in the book biz, he’s also the editor of the innovative e-zine Jim Baen’s Universe. [More...]
Although Sue Dawe works on a variety of themes with different media, she is best known for her fantasy airbrushed designs, which have appeared in magazines and on back-to school products, posters, greeting cards, games, and Franklin Mint plates. She enjoys many aspects of fandom, including costuming, writing for fun, and late night practical jokes. [More...]
Kevin Roche has been a researcher in Spintronics at the IBM Almaden Research Center for almost 25 years. He's also been costuming since he was old enough to draw eyes on a paper bag and call it art, and is one of the small gang of costumers responsible for creating the International Costumers Guild.

Andrew Trembley: geek, freak, reader, essayist, costumer, critic, media-junkie, biker, party-queen, troublemaker, FAN. [More...]
Singer, songwriter, artist, animator, college professor, Voltaire will appear in a special concert performance on Saturday night after the Masquerade. Special pricing will be available for those who want to come saturday night for the concert. See our Registration Page

We'd like to thank everyone who attended Philcon 2006 over the weekend of November 17th to 19th at our new location, and made it a success — all the artists, costumers, dealers, gamers, banner guests, program participants, less compactly-describable-but-still-essential members; and the convention committee. Your efforts and dedication make it all possible, and we hope to see you all again in twelve months.
