Houston and/or Texas Science Fiction Organizations

Austin-area

We sponsor many activities aimed towards furthering the cause of literacy and the enjoyment of the genres. One example is ArmadilloCon, our annual literary conference. Some of our other functions include autographings, the F.A.C.T. Science Fiction Reading Group, meetings, social gatherings and The F.A.C.T. Sheet.

Dallas-area

So if you have a particular fondness for all things fandom, or even just a few, feel free to join Fandom at Random DFW, the all-inclusive fandom group!

And speaking of local conventions, one of the other purposes of Fandom at Random DFW is to help further awareness of the rich Dallas/Fort Worth (and also Texas) convention scene. Many of these great conventions go unnoticed by fans who would love to attend. Look to us as a source for info on upcoming conventions of every kind!

Finally, we are silly for the fan collector's scene. We love meeting fellow collectors and hope to develop a network to help local collectors help each other find those great toys, comics, and other collectibles that may not be available in one are but plentiful in another.

Why not join us and become a part of the newest force in DFW fandom!

Active for over two years now, this very eclectic, enthusiastic, smart, and fun-loving group holds the bragging rights as the most active Browncoat group in the world with an average of 2+ shindigs every month.

San Antonio-area

The USS BEXAR is a community service type organization participating in various charities and events throughout the San Antonio metropolitan area. Some of the local charities our club participates in are the Elf Louise Project, The Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure and the American Diabetes Association.

Our club activities are usually on most weekends, ranging from fan conventions (Local, State, Regional, etc.), to various fund raising activities, parties and movie and game nights.

We are a group of readin' folks based in San Antonio, Texas, who like to get together regularly to discuss science fiction and muse over other speculations in general, socialize, and meld with munchies. We also get out and do stuff in the real world upon occasion; a nonprofit organization that conducts writing and art workshops, holds book auctions, helps out at sci-fi conventions, and tries to promote cool stuff like reading and open-minded thinking.

Our members are quite varied sorts, and (beware) artists and writers rank among some of them. While eating and talking rate up highly in our common activities, we also engage in other forms of fun and play games, write silly stories, share finds, make fun of movies, and plot and plan... you'll have to join to discover just what... whoahohohahahahahahaaaa....
