You know that antique wind-up traveller's clock I bought a while back? I have now resolved to have it ticking (and hopefully, chiming) in time for this. Probably with a Seal of Rassilon replacing the original ruined paper clockface. :D (Or maybe the chameleon-arch design, though that would be harder and less recognizable.)

I don't know if I'll get around to doing anything else, though. busy busy. Also I need to get started planning for Fear Day.


Anyway: I will be at the National Book Festival in Washington, DC on Saturday, all day. I traditionally use it to meet internets people. Anybody local planning to be there?

Dude, you're local? (when not in NYC) Whereabouts?

Alexandria. I actually work downtown by McPherson.

The thing I like about the Seal Of Rassilon design is that it's completely unrecognisable as fannish if you don't know the canon :)

Yes! It's also traditionally-decorative enough that you can pass it off as just being a pretty design, unlike the Watcher symbol or the Imperial logo (both of which would also look cool on a clockface. But not as cool.)
