Introduction of new member

Hello, Bonjour -

I have offered my help to the French Worldcon in 2023 bid as I feel it would be great to get the third Worldcon on the Mainland of Europe.

As for my qualitications: I have been to Heicon, the 1970 World SF Convention in Heidelberg and organised ConFiction in 1990 in the Hague, the Worldcon in the Netherlands. I have been visiting and attending convention around the globe for many years; work as translator and Publisher in real life and most recently produced all Publications for Loncon 3, the Worldcon in London. I have good contact in the publishing field and the printing business which helps to get good prices.

So, hence my offer to help and assist the bid in France! Do not re-invent the wheel. Use what is available, add your own identity and voila, there is the first Worldcon in France!

Be visible, be energetic and promote yourself whereever and whenever you can!
And most of all, believe in yourself. You can do it - if all noses point in the same direction!

Amicalement,
Kees
