The K/S Slash Convention returns to Seattle... and to your computer!

About us


What started as small house parties in the 1980s, has evolved into the largest K/S convention. Fans from all over the globe, young and old, newbies and seasoned Trekkers, come together to take part in a weekend of slashy goodness. If you’d like to find out more about KiScon’s rich history, check out this Fanlore article.


Meet the concom for 2024:

T'Lara
Con-chair
Vidshow Curator
Stacks Image 46
Vidder, writer, cosplayer, librarian for the European branch of the K/S Fanzine Library.
T’Lara has been organising fanvid shows for several years, both at conventions and in the virtual living room of her Livestream channel. When she’s not swooning over Kirk and Spock, she squees about cannibalistic murder husbands (Bryan Fuller’s Hannibal), murderous geniuses living under the Paris Opera, or singing vampires.
Defender of the glorious cuppa, she makes sure there is always *real* tea in the mess room.
StarshipLillian
Con-chair
Logistics
Communications

Lillian is a collection of several lizards cleverly disguised as a functional concom member who enjoys reading and writing fanfic, experiencing the thrill of watching vids and looking at fanart, and being inundated with visions about the men from the television.
She has recently taken over as librarian of the U.S. branch of the K/S Fanzine Library.
Lillian is the inventor of the KiScon Office Hours that helped many a fan figure out Conline and Zoom in the run-up to the con weekend.
Linda

Linda has been a huge Star Trek fan ever since she watched the first episode in 1966. She discovered K/S in 1998 when she got her first computer, did a search for “Kirk Spock”, and her mind was boggled! She’s been a rabid K/S fan ever since. She started attending KiScon in 2004 and has attended every one since except KiScon 2012 in England.
If you've ever emailed KiScon about something, it is very likely you spoke with Linda.
1lostone
Zine Editor
Tech Support
PR
Stacks Image 52
Writer, trekker, and cheerleader for all things fandom, 1lostone (or Lost) has been scribbling her misadventures with Kirk and Spock in notebooks with sparkly pens since she found her aunt’s zines at age twelve. While an avid consumer of all things fandom, she still considers Trek to be her nearest and dearest.
Since 2022 she is our lovely con zine editor.
She will also be helping with promotion and can be found on Discord for all those pesky techy questions.
Trekker
Finances
Cheerleader
PR
Stacks Image 54
Trekker has been involved in many nonprofit organizations. In love with Star Trek since being half-grown, she is now fully grown and still loves Star Trek. She reads dead tree books and lurks online but like many fans, she has a WIP in notebooks and on her hard drive…
Her expertise in delicious booze easily rivals McCoy’s and Scotty’s.
