Dorado Raganos meetup, 7/13/2009
The meetup of the editorial team of Dorado Raganos science fiction fanzine. The three original publishers of the fanzine – Diana, Audronė, and I – have all been living outside Lithuania for at least a decade, but we still keep the fanzine going. It has turned 15 years old in 2009. This year the circumstances have brought all three of us to Lithuania at the same time, so we all met up and caught up. The last time the 3 of us have gotten together was... well, 15 years ago. Our other editors and helpers, who do a lot of work for Dorado Raganos, were also here.
A journalist interviewed us for a magazine article. Read more about our meetup and interview in my blog.
