I just got off the phone with Alyson Abramowitz, who’s been our go-between for the Kerry and Joss camps. She’s been doing the heavy lifting the past few days. There are now 29 parties nationwide. We even have a URL on the Kerry site.
Joss will be at the LA party, co-hosted by Marsia of the Saving Angel campaign and Herc of Ain’t It Cool News. Amy Acker (Fred) and J. August Richards (Gunn) will be there as well.
If there’s not a party close to where you live, then host one.
I’m still stunned by fandom’s response to what was originally a plan to have a few friends over, order pizza, watch some Buffy episodes and write some checks for the Kerry/Edwards campaign. Well, now I know how Pat Murphy must have felt when she joked about funding an award for Feminist Science Fiction through bake sales, and fandom took her up on the idea.
