Due to the sci-fi entertainment industry supposedly waning fast in the past years, it certainly isnt surprising to see die hard fans rise up and take a stand against what most would believe is inevitable. With that goal in mind, FenCon was born in 2004 and lived on, bringing numerous guests and notabe science fiction and fantasy authors to their doors from the very start. Some can say that the love for the old, obtuse genre was kept alive because of the efforts made by the founders of FenCon, Tim Miller and Ed Dravecky. Because of their hard work, FenCon could continue to live and grow, and later in the year, Dallas will see the return of FenCon with FenCon IX.
