Kaleidoscope at Readercon and LonCon

Posted By on Aug 5, 2014 | 0 comments


Kaleidoscope is having a busy couple of months. Next weekend we’ll be at LonCon and having a Kaleidoscope launch party! The party will be on Friday afternoon from 1:30 to 2:30 in the Book Launch section of the Library at ExCel. Please come and say hello! We’ll have Kaleidoscope stickers that you can put on your badge (or anywhere else you like), and copies of the book will also be available at the con.

The very first books arrived at Julia’s house just in time for Readercon, so contributors who were attending Readercon (including Shveta Thakrar, Amal El-Mohtar, Ken Liu, John Chu, Sofia Samatar, and Alena McNamara) got to get their contributor copies first out of everyone.

Here’s a series of Readercon photos:
