I live in Mobile but still, Sarasota, Florida is surely closer than Seattle, Washington and Maine...... Ms. Marsha, what would be a good non-intrusive place for everybody to meet down over Florida way and when you'll be around, provided retirement doesnt steal you away first?
Sarasota itself would probably be the most neutral place to meet up and that has locations that Steve would have mentioned in his writing. Going with the every other year schedule, 2020 will also be my retirement year so I may have put down the baton when the next Kon is held.

Not necessarily. I may not be still working as Ms. Mod but that doesn't mean I couldn't come to the Kon. ;)

Hmmmm - now you've got us thinking, eh?

Gawd no--still planning to live in Maine the majority of the year and the winters in Arizona. My plans for retirement are to do whatever I want to do and the only thing King-related will be catching up on reading some of the books I've missed along the way. :) I only meant that coming to a Kon isn't dependent on my still working for them and would be in the capacity of an attendee just like everyone else if I've retired by then.

Who’s been arranged to take your place in the SKMB hierarchy once you retire?

That would be good - less stress - I'm sure it's more fun just to be an attendee rather than a VIP [but you'll always have official VIP status with us anyway] :m_applause::m_starstruck:

....since I have kind of been "overseeing" if you will, the last few Kons-I'm still mulling over some ideas and will try to get a couple of proposals out before the change of the year.....but remember, I don't have any authority to "order" anything, just trying to help......

Are you implying you won't still be a board member after retirement? :sorrow::sweat::saddd:
