While someone else will probably provide a better recap of the Fest than this, let me just throw some fact checking out there to show what an interesting conversation yo ucan have at a 'Fest:
Tupac actually died in '96.
dotchan’s Quirk -really- doesn’t look like she’s a prude. (thanks for the advice, though, Hockey!)
Neither shortstory.com nor shortstories.com seem to have any stories about incest or Vietnam era- Christian fables
Strunk and White is selling for less than $4 on amazon.com.
I had a great time with you all! I hope we can get together again soon.
I haven’t done any indepth analysis on Dot’s quirk…that was just a guess. 
Sorry O couldn’t make it. I got woke up early in the morning to deal with a drunken soldier who thought that driving home was a good idea. Hope you had a good time.

The Short Stories web site URL is:
which makes it a little hard to find.
Rodriguez’ stories aren’t on that site, but they are in a lot of other places on the web. Here’s Guided by a Single Star. His short story published collection is called Humidity Moon.
Thanks, romans. That story is incredibly creepy, as advertised.
ETA: The Electra story… not the Single Star one
