Slashcon was a small fan run convention for slash fans held in Australia. It started on or before 2005 and ran until at least 2010.
2005
Slashcon 2005 was held in June: "Much Kudos to chaosmanor for Slashcon 2005!!"[1]
2006
Was held in May 2006.
In other news Slashcon was lots of fun. See below the cut for details (beware the length!....There was an interesting panel on queer identity and its relationship to slash - there was lots of different tie ins and comments related to it, from very very old slash to the more recent fandoms. It also generated a fair amount of comment on what actually constituted 'sex' etc... and of course the comments leading on from that on satisfaction[2]
2008
Held 20th June- 1pm 22nd June at Fairbridge Village, Pinjarra, Western Australia.
For the first time, and through the generous support of the Western Australian Science Fiction Foundation, Slashcon has been able to invite a Guest of Honour! angstslashhope! Hope is a Melbourne-based fan, slasher, writer, trouble-maker, vidder, wiki-whizz, enabler, Organization For Transformative Works Wiki Committee Chair and all-round fabulous person, who has written a thesis on Supernatural fanfic. Fannishly, she started in Lord of the Rings and then moved through Lotrips, The Faculty, 21 Jump Street, Firefly/Serenity and now Supernatural. You need to meet Hope, before her Die Hard 4 obsession gets too embarrassing.[3]
