One of the people I met during my GUFF trip back in 2018 was Kat Clay. She interviewed me at Continuum 14 and our picture from this programme item is one of my favourites. This year she decided to stand for GUFF herself. I had the pleasure to be one of Kat’s European nominators. I thought it may be good to introduce her to my readers and hopefully convince you to vote for her (and the vorting period clsoes next week!).
Choose your GUFF candidate
The GUFF race is ongoing and it would be good to have as many votes as possible. In case you think you should not be voting as you don’t know the candidates you may want to check their platforms in the ballot or you may want to read short interviews below (candidates are presented in alphabetical order). Remember – every vote counts!
Winning the GUFF
Oh dear, it took me a while to write this post. There are a few reasons for this including a lot of things I had to do shortly after winning the GUFF race. Still, here I am to share with you how it went and how it matters to me.
What can I pack in my “fandom suitcase”?
I am participating in the GUFF race and I have already described my approach towards it. Now, when the ballot is online, I am constantly thinking about what I will do if I win? What should I be doing? And, last but not least, how should I let everyone know that it is worth to vote for me?
GUFF or there and back again
I am not sure when I heard about Fan Funds for the first time. Maybe it was at Eurocon in Zagreb (2012) where I met Kylie Ding who was a GUFF delegate that year. Or maybe I have seen the information earlier? Anyways, I started to seriously think about GUFF for the first time during Pyrkon 2015, when I had a fantable just next to Mihaela-Marija Perković, who was both representing Sferakon and administering GUFF at that time.
