YaoiCon’s website has updated for the 2010 convention year with an attractively slimmed down layout and some news that’s bound to make than a few attendees go running for the reg books.
Not only does the site confirm the conventions new location at the larger Hyatt Regency but also 2010’s Guest of Honour: the boys’ love artist who will always make you do a double-take for all the right reasons – Ayano Yamane!
“When Yamane-sensei came to Yaoi-Con in 2004, she was a rising star in the BL industry. Six years later, she is now arguably the genre’s brightest star, renowned for her detailed, beautiful art and sexy stories.
Whether it’s her manly semes like Finder’s Asami, Crimson Spell’s Havi or Ikoku Irokoi Romantan’s Albert Valentine or fiesty ukes like Akihito, Prince Vald or Ranmaru, we love Yamane-sensei’s attention to detail, sense of humor and steamy love scenes. And we’re sure you will too!”
YaoiCon is also offering their three-day badges for only $40 up until March 31, 2010 as part of a 10-year anniversary special.
My wallet’s already tied for travel this year but YaoiCon sure knows how to tempt a boys’ love fan! Any Kuriousity readers planning to attend? Or are you simply joining me in imagining the entertaining genre-junkie mayhem?
