Why I Won't Be at Bouchercon
Judy and I love Bouchercon and have been attending pretty regularly since 1980. Not this year, though. The reasons are the same as why we weren't at WorldCon, so rather than repeat them, I'll just give you this link. Maybe next year Bouchercon will be back on the agenda.

Well, of course we won't be there either. Jackie's knee is a lot better but not ready for prime time yet, and with so many of our friends not coming and the spread out nature of this year's con, it wasn't too painful to cancel it. Of coure it helped that I hadn't paid yet.
Let's hope Judy is much, much better by next year. I doubt we'll be going to Long Beach either, but we have our sights on Raleigh and New Orleans for sure.

I hope the medical treatments are going as well as they can.
I enjoyed chatting with you and Judy at B'con 2011, and will miss you this year. My best to you both.
So sorry to hear about Judy's continuing battle, Bill. I understand how difficult this is for you standing on the sidelines (I had to do that recently, too). And yes, Bouchercon and everything else will wait. Best wishes to the both of you for better times ahead.
Next year for sure.
Best wishes to you & Judy from us.
So many not going this year, and many for health reasons. I do hope it's a good con, I'd hate to think it might fade away, but it's harder to travel these days and everything is pretty expensive.
I hope San Francisco wasn't our last Bouchercon, but unless there's another one on the west coast I doubt we'll go.
As always, best wishes to you and your wife.
We will be thinking about you and Judy, and sending good thoughts.
For RkR (is that you, Rick?) next year is Long Beach CA.
