"If Arisia is going to be your first science fiction convention, then you&#039;re in for a treat. Bring (or meet) friends if you can. If not, don&#039;t worry. This is a gathering of fandom. You&#039;ll have ample opportunities to meet people. If you&#039;re shy or don&#039;t easily operate where everyone seems to know everyone else, then volunteer some time to work the convention. That will give you an automatic excuse to talk to people, including some of the biggest names in science fiction."
