Corflu

Corflu is a science fiction fanzine convention held each spring, generally in North America but also five times in England and once in Northern Ireland. It is named after a slang term for the "correction fluid" used in mimeograph printing, a common way to produce fanzines before the arrival of low-cost photocopying and online fanzines. Each Corflu is organized by a different regional group, selected at the previous year's gathering.
