Don't get hung up on definitions of SF and Fantasy at this stage, Figures. They're both catered for equally, and often at the same time, in Eastercon panels, and any advice for writers will apply to you whatever you define your fiction as being.

I've always found that I've come out of an Eastercon full of enthusiasm, rather than being dejected in any way.
