From a Twitter conversation: (@the_gneech is your ever-lovin’, blue-eyed blogger, @RebelsHeart is also known as Tango in the fandom, and @onezumi is the founder of InterventionCon…)
@onezumi: @RebelsHeart lot of my friends are furs-would be nice to get more @interventioncon I did flyer a lil last yr
@the_gneech: @onezumi Hey, if you want more furries at @interventioncon, I can help with that! But I’ll warn you, we tend to take over. 0=)
@the_gneech: @onezumi Start by making Bill Holbrook (who was on panels and in the dealer room last year) a GOH. ;)
@onezumi: @the_gneech he was a guest last year, I believe he has been asked about returning
@Rebelsheart: @the_gneech @onezumi @interventioncon we can both help with this, but the takeover comment is not a joke. Ask DuckCon
@Rebelsheart: @onezumi @interventioncon I’m on 4 regional mailing lists, a number of regional LJ groups, and I know there are groups on @furaffinity
@onezumi: @RebelsHeart @the_gneech we don’t mind :) if ppl bring their fandom we will facilitate awesome
@the_gneech: @RebelsHeart @onezumi On the other hand, we are loveable and awesome people! ^.^
@onezumi: @the_gneech @RebelsHeart very true-I’ve attended AC 4x now :)
@the_gneech: @onezumi @rebelsheart Okay, we’ll get on it, then!
@onezumi: @the_gneech @rebelsheart I would love to make furry art, but I haven’t had the chance. I’ve illustrated friends’ fursonas
@onezumi: @the_gneech @rebelsheart hilariously haven’t illustrated me LOL
@onezumi: @the_gneech @rebelsheart last yr I think many furs were reluctant to go bc it wasn’t only for furs? It’s like a chicken and egg thing
@onezumi: @the_gneech @rebelsheart need furs to make programming but first need furs to go lol
So, consider this the opening gambit. Furries: Get yourself to InterventionCon! It’s September 16-18 in Rockville, Maryland and is a very cool little con that packs a mighty punch. I’ve been to every one!
Well, okay, last year was the first one. but I went to it! And it was very cool!
