Some of you know how much a fan I am of Panhistoria, a website devoted to writing of all sorts. Most of it is history based, but they also have venues for science fiction, poetry, even literary salons. Every October they throw a “virtual Halloween ball”, which usually descends into complete chaos by the end: sometimes because of an attack of zombies or because of an impromptu paintball fight or… well, just about anything, actually. But the boys always go decked out… for at least the first part of the dance.

If you get a chance, wander over there around the weekend of the 28th. You can register as a guest, which gives you reasonably good access to the site. And who knows, you might find it something worth joining (it’s free) and participating in.
