As of the end of the last WHC, no firm bids had been placed or accepted for next years World Horror. (At least as far as I've managed to learn so far.) There is talk of Vancouver, Toronto, or maybe Phoenix again, and every year someone (usually John Pelan) tries to convince me that it should be in San Francisco, though I don't know anyone around here with enough time to commit to it.

Anyway, with plans seemingly up in the air for next year, and this new tribe having been started for WHC, I thought maybe this would be a good introductory thread where we can discuss what we've heard about the plans for 2005, or lack there of, and sort of keep each other informed.

Anyone more in the know than I am? As that I left WHC 2004 early Sunday morning, I may have missed something, and the plans might not be as bleak sounding as I've heard. (I'll have to blame my network of spies for that one!)
