FantasyCon 2011 goes to the seaside...

It might be a little too early to be thinking of conventions in 2011... or is it? Apparently not, otherwise I wouldn't be getting press releases like this one,

FANTASYCON 2011 will be held over the weekend of 30^th September to 2^nd October 2011 at the Royal Albion Hotel, Brighton; venue for the highly successful 2010 World Horror Convention.

The first two GUESTS OF HONOUR TO BE ANNOUNCED are: World Fantasy Award-winning author and critic GWYNETH JONES, also known as Ann Halam, and Swedish horror writer JOHN AJVIDE LINDQVIST, author of the best-selling LET THE RIGHT ONE IN, which was adapted into a movie first in his native Sweden and more recently remade in the U.S. as LET ME IN, starring Chloe Moretz from KICK ASS.
