"It made up for every bad thing that has happened to me. Ever."

Quite possibly the quote of the Worldcon.

Though it sounds like the UK & Irish party was filled with quote fodder. Or perhaps it was just anything that happened around James Bacon.

Excellent! And yay, a teen I happen to know got to KK with Neil Gaiman.

(Also, she's a teenager already? Yikes.)

As far as I can recall Marianne just makes the cut agewise as a teenager.

I think you may be right. The last time I saw her was at Corflu 20, when her drawings consisted mainly of random scribbles on Post-Its. (I still have one or two, somewhere.)

The last time I saw here was at Attitude: The Convention in 1997 when she was nowt but a baby. Add twelve years to that and you get teenager, or so counting on my fingers suggests.

I thought about six months off, actually; but maybe they really weren't counting too closely! (And my guess is based on age-at-earliest-convention dating, which relies on my aged-and-suffering-from-too-many-conventions memory...)

All I know is that Jonathon couldn't go to this Gaiman sushi thing because he wasn't old enough, and Marianne was rather pleased about that.

Ah, sibling rivalry is so cute when it doesn't involve your own siblings.
