    Letter from the Chair Dearest LTUE-ians, Another Presidents’ Day weekend is upon us, and I am thrilled that I get to spend it with you. A few years ago, I took a job out of state in possibly the least bookish and un-nerdiest city ever. After living in a town that recently announced its new mayor with a Star Wars parody, I found myself alone. I didn’t feel like I had much in common with anyone. I struggled to connect with people, and I began to wonder if maybe I was delusional for thinking that anyone else might like dragons, monsters, and spaceships. But every year, I made the trek back to Utah, and every year, I was delighted to rediscover my people. People who love to read, write, draw, and game all kinds of lovely weirdness. You, you glorious land mermaids, gave me hope. You gave me a place, and for that, I am everlastingly grateful. I hope that you too find friends old and new this year at LTUE. Flash forward to this year, and as chair, the LTUE community came through for me once again. Nothing would have been possible without the LTUE committee behind me. Every panel, poster, and pancake here crawled out of the brain of one of our volunteers, and I am honored to work with such talented and dedicated individuals. I especially want to thank Kate for raising the bar on all fronts, Jenna for being willing to tame a monster of a track, Kevin for putting up with our eccentricities, Mike for pulling order from chaos, and Elizabeth D.
