Yes! It's actually happening. Anime Weekend Atlanta is back after a 2020 without a live convention. I'll be there doing a few panels and hoping to dodge the Braves traffic (the Braves have advanced to the World Series and they'll be playing the Astros in their new stadium across the way from AWA's hotel and convention center Friday, Saturday, and maybe Sunday nights). I am, as usual, filled with pre-con jitters, exacerbated by the big unknown of putting on an anime con in these COVID times. Anyway, here's what I'm up to!
the Thursday night swap meet!
the history of AWA panel I'm doing with Lloyd Carter
Neil Nadelman's collection of the lamest anime
Anime Hell, of course
Ryan Gavigan's late night anime parody block
whatever the anime that got you into anime, we'll probably mention it
I'm flying out Wednesday and by Thursday noon I'll be at the con and probably won't stop until sometime Sunday. See you there if you can make it!
AWA 2021!!!!

Re: AWA 2021!!!!
I'll be doing my two panels back to back on Saturday with "The Wide World of Initial D" at 3:15 at the Waverly Panel room and "That B.A.D Panel (Bad Anime Dubbing)" at 4:30 at the Highlands down the escalator.
