For a couple of months, I've been making plans to return to the Tulsa Trek Expo as part of the 2008 Geektour.
I know there are a number of people who have been planning to come to the show because I'm on the guest list, and I know I'm going to disappoint a lot of people, but I've had to cancel my trip to the con.
I'm not going to go into details, because it's awfully personal and none of anyone's business, but I hope anyone who's upset will try to understand and accept it when I say, "It's personal, it's family, and that's all I'm prepared to say publicly about it."
I've already talked with the convention's mysterious overlords, and we're making plans to have me come out for the 2009 convention. In fact, Anne and I are already planning to make another road trip out of it.
I feel truly awful about this, and I'm incredibly sorry. I know that it's going to be a great con, and I'll definitely be there next year.
