News From the Weyrfest At DragonCon '97!
(June 26-29 1997)

According to Jody Lynn Nye (author of the vaunted Dragonlover's Guide to Pern) along with her husband Bill Fawcett who spoke with Anne McCaffrey herself, Friday night at the Convention. Basically rumors of the new Pern movie have been confirmed! Though there is no actual release date for the film as of yet, it is expected to come out sometime within the next 18 months! Yeah! Also, the next Pern novel The Masterharper of Pern is to be released the beginning of next year. However, the first chapter is available online at the Delrey website. Also to be released next year is the first Pern music CD! With the teaching ballads, Robinton's and Menolly's compositions, and also one very special song by Robinton, his first song... at age 3. (My pictures of Jody Lynn Nye will be available on this page soon too. )

News From the Weyrfest At DragonCon '98!
(Sept 3-6 1998)


This year's convention was punctuated by the strong presense of the Pern MOO players finally. The Masterhaper of Pern CD by Tanya and Mike Opland has finally been released and it's very good! Also, Grolier's plans to release the Dragonflight game has been delayed till 1999. Also for 1999 or 2000 will be the Pern TV show! Not the movie unfortunately. But it seems that Anne is quite satisfied with the special effects that will go into the show. Also planned is the Pern MOOfest also for DragonCon '99. It will specialize on the real-time role playing communities such as VirtuaPern who will be the ones hosting the majority of the Gather.
