2018 Will Be My Year Being Toasty

[autographedcat]

I realised today, while looking over the last couple of weeks of posting on Facebook, that I didn't make an announcement I thought I had. ((My skill at self-promotion.  Let me show it to you.))

I'm very pleased to announce that the Ohio Valley Filk Festival has asked me to be their Toastmaster in 2018!  This will be my 17th consecutive OVFF, and I couldn't be more excited.  In addition to myself, guests include Cheshire Moon, Harold Stein, and Julia West!  It's going to be a great time, so I hope you'll come out and see us!

Meanwhile, I will also be Toastmaster at Conflikt in Seattle this January, so I'm looking forward to a great deal of being Toasty next year. :)

Congratulations!

What are the duties of the toastmaster?

A big part of the role is acting as master of ceremonies for the programming. In addition, I'll be performing a concert, and other programming (song contest judging, panels, etc.) as directed by the event organisers.
