As a proud participant in the up-coming FantasyCon — held in Britannia Hotel, Nottingham, UK, and held by the British Fantasy Society — Humdrumming is ecstatic to announce details of their specially dedicated event on the first evening! Huzzah! The event is described as follows:

Humdrumming Announcement Event / Knees-Up (cash bar)
on the evening of Friday, September 19^th, 2008 at 7:30 pm

Due to the absence of the Colonial who is Humdrumming’s Acting C.E.O, recently retired C.E.O. Guy Adams [see right for face image] will present an amazing and inspirational list of titles that Humdrumming will be publishing before next year’s FantasyCon. Surprises galore and names you’d never expect to hear! Horror, Fantasy, SF, all genres included; even funny things! Be the first to know what wonders are in store! You’ll gasp! You’ll weep! You’ll beg for mercy!

Witness Tim Lebbon’s novella The Reach of Children being waved in the air for the first time! See the glories that are the dual art editions of Gary M^cMahon’s Rain Dogs and Peter Crowther’s The Land at the End of the Working Day!

Also included is a huge orgy of signings of Humdrumming Books:

• The Second Humdrumming Book of Horror Stories, many names, including a Guest of Honour! All completing the signing of the Hardcover Edition of the book available in an affordable and very limited quantity!
• Beneath the Surface, by Simon Strantzas (imported from the wilds of Toronto especially for your delectation!)
• Many other titles as well!

Oiled dancers will move among the crowds, jugglers and trampolines, the lame shall walk, the blind shall see, the closed minds shall be open and love will be passed among all! Let the doves be set FREE!

• rating: 18+ due to language used by the presenter

The British Fantasy Society’s FantasyCon continues (if it’s able to after this event) until the mid-afternoon of Sunday the 21^st.
