Good grief - Eastercon panels

I've just got an email through inviting me to be on two panels at Eastercon. First reaction - bloody hell! Why me? Second reaction is that I'm chuffed and will happily play, but the reason for the first is that I have zero profile as a writer, a fan or any other kind of SFnal fixture. I know more or less how wide my audience is for these rantings, and apart from joining in at Writer's Bloc, that's it for public exposure.

I have a good idea who put me up for this though. Fair enough, I did volunteer to do something, I just wasn't expecting this.

Another reason for the reaction is that three writers that I like a lot have also been invited to be on the panels. Wheee!
