WSFA Starts New Year Still Remote Via Zoom
1/1/2021 – Sam S. reminded people to pay memberships $20 to Capclave@yahoo.com, use Paypal’s Friends and Family rate.

“Alright folks,” said Bob, trying to start the meeting. “It’s meeting time. Welcome to 2021. First Friday of the first month.” Sam L. read minutes. Sam S. gave the treasury report. Current total of $$$ with a year over year of $$$$. Pay dues so can nominate and vote for WSFA small press. You can write a check and mail them, use Paypal to Capclave@yahoo.com (Friends and Family) or call and give a credit card number through square (costs us the most in fee). WSFA Press did gangbusters. When we started WSFA Press, we agreed to give WSFA Press $10,000 a year. This year moved $$$$ out of Press account so made a profit.

Capclave Present: George said to Paul that we need to put up a list of paid members because might not remember. Boskone, turnaround too tight, never heard back about ad swap. Someone asked where are we on rebuild of site for 2021? Paul said about a week ago, poured hot chocolate on computer. It did not react well. So didn’t get registration page up and need names from Sam. Need new Zambia and no one contacted me about Zambia. George said this would be Rodger and Zenlizard. Zen said he had some training and could use more. George said need to send email to Bjorn. Logistical stuff needs to get done. Need to do backup of ad with Cathy. Rodger was not here for Capclave Future.

The Committee to Discuss SF will discuss the November issue of Clarkesworld which is available free at http://clarkesworldmagazine.com/

Remember you don’t have to read all the stories. You can choose a few and listen in on the discussion of the rest. There is even an audio version of The Land of Eternal Jackfruits at http://clarkesworldmagazine.com/category/podcast/ if you prefer to listen rather than read.

Note. This Journal is from Nov/December 2020 so it is almost an entire year late. I blame a combination of Covid, work, laziness, sunspots, and aliens, yeah aliens that’s it.

Cheers for Capclave Volunteers

Prez Bob opened the 11/6/2020 meeting saying, “This is November of 2020.” Sam L read notes from the last Capclave. Sam S gave the treasurer’s report – a little over $$$ down $$ from last year because no hotel bill while paid this year’s Capclave bills already.

The Committee to Discuss SF will discuss the Sept/October issue of F&SF.

On those rare months where there are 5 Fridays, WSFA will sometimes throw an unofficial get-together. This Friday is one of those times. These are not WSFA meetings. No WSFA business will be discussed. Instead it is simply an opportunity for everyone to get together and talk about whatever is on their minds … and eat snacks.

This Friday, Sam Lubell will be hosting a WSFA Fifth Friday/Halloween/Early Birthday party on Zoom.  Costumes are encouraged but not required. Supply your own candy. Instead of birthday presents, please vote in the election for president.

WSFA Meetings is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
