[PS] workshops

[Crystal M. Huff]

I'm sure you've thought of this, but the major potential issues I see  
are thus:  There are bound to be folks who're desperate to take the  
workshop but can't be at both days of the con, and problems are  
likely to arise if folks show up to the first half and not the second.

But it's certainly a creative solution, and if those risks are ones  
you're willing to deal with, it's a better option than not having the  
workshop at all.  :)

Alternatively, perhaps we could run the workshops in question on both  
Friday and Monday, in order to reach a wider audience and yet not  
take up prime real estate during the height of the con?
