 We've received word that GoH LE Modesitt's wife became seriously ill at Worldcon and she has to go in for surgery in Reno tomorrow ... as a result, he will be unable to attend Context. Please send the Modesitts your prayers/good thoughts that she recovers fully and quickly.

 The programming schedule for Context 24 has been added to the front page of the convention website:

http://www.contextsf.org/

The deadline for registering online has been extended slightly; it is now August 20th at 7pm EST; after that, the online form will be disabled and you will need to register at the door.

Also, there are seats available in most writing workshops:

If you were planning to send your registration by snail-mail, at this point you should probably wait and pay at the door.
