Conflux 9

Thursday 25 April through to Sunday 28 April 2013 (Australia’s 52nd NatCon/Canberra Speculative Fiction Conference) I promised Europa SF a report of Conflux.

We asked a girl about the names of the roads and were not quite sure that we had understood each other, and after about a kilometre we asked a lady for the way to Hotel Nivki. She led us in a direction that felt more and more wrong, and suddenly we were at a hotel, but not the one we looked for, and we were almost back where we started. However, after going back quite a long way and on the right way again, we found the road were...
