Sarah Location: Pittsburgh, PA. It’s better than it sounds.
Interests: Reading, baking, film-festival-ing which is totally a word, gardening, speculative fiction, making up songs about my cats.
Nickname/Alternate name: None.
Website: See: blog. I also mess around too much on Tumblr at http://cups-of-tea-and-
Blog: Newly resurrected at http://www.msanthropy.com/
Facebook: None
Twitter: @scbecker (private, but I’m happy to add Weetacon people)
Significant Other: Len, a.k.a. “Len”
Random Fact: I learned to knit once when I was very drunk, knit most of a scarf because I am apparently a Party Animal when I drink, and have never since been able to knit a single stitch.
Secret Super Power: Cat whispering.
Attending: Weetacon 2013
Reason I’m attending Weetacon: Twitter told me to, and I take more of my life direction from Twitter than is strictly healthy.
Thing I’m most nervous about: Being unbelievably socially awkward like that time in second grade when the boys all saw my slip and I ran and hid in the locker room. Maybe I should pack a nice slip just in case?
My impressions of Weetacon are: I don’t actually know much about it. There will be fun people there? And snow? And karaoke which I will probably not do unless the bar is somehow stocked with a wide-ranging selection of showtunes and/or Italian arias.
When we meet, ask me about: Bon Jovi vs. Springsteen: Who gives out the best Halloween candy? Or: How to construct the perfect film festival schedule. Or: the time I ALMOST was a big Broadway star but then wasn’t. Or the time I found an abandoned stove full of seventies porn. Or cats. Or books. Or my thoughts on the Oxford comma. I contain multitudes, I’m just a little shy about them at first.
With this group, the thing you listed most likely to start a brawl would be debates about the Oxford comma. 70s porn is always a sure winner, though.
