SUMMARY:Poly Intersection: Renaissance Pleasure Faire\, Society for Creative Anachronism\, and Dungeons & Dragons.
DESCRIPTION:Led by Elaine Anderson. \nElaine has been a member of Queen’s Court in SCA several times\, participated in Renaissance Pleasure Faire\, and been active in Dungeons & Dragon activities for many years. \nThe Renaissance Pleasure Faire of Southern California was founded by Phyllis and Ron Patterson in 1963. In 1966\, a group of friends (including the writers Diaba Paxson\, Marion\nZimmer Bradley\, Poul Anderson\, and Karen Kruse Anderson) interested in historical reenactment and science fiction/fantasy founded the Society for Creative Anachronism at an\nevent now known as First Tournament in Berkeley\, California. \nBetween that time and this couples have met at Faire or SCA\, married in the Faire Wedding Garden and brought their children back to enjoy it. Some of them have been in Guilds which\nfeature role play Families which can become very real for the 6-12 weekends of Faire and preparing for Faire each year..perhaps for decades. This is even more true with SCA events\nwhich occur several times a year and can involve staying on site for whole weekends or more for the Wars.

SUMMARY:Spider Robinson's Poly Primers
DESCRIPTION:Callahan’s Crosstime Saloon introduces a group of people who support each other in handling their problems and celebrating their joys. In this and later books they go beyond this to actual group telepathic communication. In Callahan’s Keys they show their commitment to each other by all moving out-of- state together when local laws and the abuse of them prevented them from meeting together where they were. \nAccording to Spider’s biographical material\, many of the metaphysical as well as the group related experiences come from his real-life ones with his expanded family and close friends during the ‘60s in Haight-Ashbury. \nFor more details\, see the full article in the April-May Live the Dream Newsletter.

SUMMARY:LAcon V\, the 84th World Science Fiction Convention\, in Anaheim\, CA
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, August 27 through Monday\, August 31\, 2026\nLAcon V\, the 84th World Science Fiction Convention\nHeld at the Anaheim Convention Center\, the Hilton Anaheim Hotel\,\nand the Anaheim Marriott Hotel \nVisit https://www.lacon.org for details on the convention. \nJoin us at Lacon V! We will be at the following panels. You will also find us helping out at the autograph table. Note: this information is based on the schedule that was available at the time of this newsletter’s publication deadline. Please verify with the final program. \nHeinlein and the Professionals of Early LA Science Fiction\nRoom Huntington ABC at 12:00 PM PDT on Thursday\, August 27\, 2026 \nGlen Olson\, Terry Brussel-Roger’s co-author of Fifty Years of Polyamory in America: A Guided Tour of a Growing Movement\, moderates this panel\, which includes Terry Brussel-Rogers. \nLos Angeles in the 1930s and 1940s wasn’t just a hub of fandom\, it was a magnet for prominent SF professionals whose work helped define the Golden Age. This program focuses on Robert A. Heinlein\, whose move to LA immersed him in local fandom and war-era research culture\, and the meetings of his Mañana Literary Society. It will also highlight the editors\, illustrators\, and pulp authors who made SoCal a pressure point for modern SF. Questions and comments on Heinlein’s later books on polyamory are welcome. \nHeinlein wrote For Us The Living in 1938\, though it wasn’t published until 2003. It had plenty of poly oriented material in it long before the word was coined. It also contains fascinating bits which later became full novels prominently portraying the concept of multiply committed relationships\, group marriage and group living. \nIs Fandom Really Egalitarian?\nRoom 263 A at 10:30 AM PDT on Monday\, August 31\, 2026\nTerry Brussel-Rogers is moderating. \nEgalitarianism is an ideal fandom aspires to\, where fan spaces are open to everyone and everyone is an equal. Yet\, we all know fandom often misses that mark. Panelists will discuss the unequal realities within fandom\, and steps we can all take to make these spaces into more equal and welcoming places. \nSaturday Open Filk\nRoom San Simeon A starting at 9:00 PM PDT on Saturday\, August 29\, 2026 \nFilk music started out with people getting together in a circle in some random place at a convention to swap songs. We’re official now and in a larger space\, but it’s still the same supportive tradition of sharing music together late into the night. All voices\, instruments\, and styles including a cappella are welcome! Come by to sing or to listen!
