Details here $45 is the cost of one membership for the four-day feminist science fiction convention that occurs every Memorial Day weekend in our city. When the spouse and I first moved here a decade ago, we thought it sounded interesting, but we were both a little leery about what "feminist science fiction" would turn out to mean. We were kind of imagining a group of about 800 Andrea Dworkin clones or something. It turned out to be very different, very interesting, and a whole lot of fun. We enjoyed ourselves so much, in fact, that we are now both members of the all-volunteer committee that plans and puts on the convention every year.
