Concentric Membership reimbursement

Dear Member,

We hope you have been well and safe. As you know, Concentric the 2020 Eastercon, did not happen. On 15th May we sent you an email explaining our reimbursement options. We have not, as yet, heard from you. We would like to finalise our convention finances would appreciate you letting us know your preference as soon as possible and in any case by 18th July. This will be three months after our first email and four months after the convention.

The options available to you are:

Darkbox Images

Darbox Images makes Authentic Victorian Tintype Portraits using the same methods and chemistry that the Victorians used.

Wizard's Tower Books

Wizard's Tower is a small press specialising in science fiction and fantasy. Our main areas of interest are helping mid-list writers keep their careers, giving a boost to new writers, and publishing fiction in translation. All of our ebooks are DRM-free. During the pandemic crisis we are issuing a free short story every week.
