So no big Need Coffee event this year, but some of our members will be on the ground paneling their hearts out for you lot. Here’s where to find them.
For the virtual panels, check out the DragonCon Facebook page for more info. I’m sure it’ll be showing up there. Each panelist has their Twitter account linked to their name once, so you can hopefully find info about their whereabouts by stalking them there.
If you’re attending, stay safe out there.
