+# The True Frownies are the Friends We Made Along the Way: An Anecdote of Emacs's Malleability
+Case Duckworth
+
+Emacs is well-known for being extremely flexible, programmable, and
+extensible; in fact, that's probably the biggest reason it's still
+being used after 40+ years of existence, and even has enough clout to
+generate an entire conference in its name. In this medium-length
+presentation, I will add another point to the data set proving Emacs's
+abilities, by narrating the latest package I made, \`frowny.el\`, from
+its conception to its current, nearly-completed state.
+
+I wrote frowny.el to scratch someone else's itch as a joke on IRC, but
+it has been called "pretty useful, for a joke package." I feel like
+that encapsulates the spirit of Emacs and that's why I want to present
+on this topic.
+
+Along the way, I'll discuss just a little of my own history of Emacs,
+and why I feel it's a great tool for non-technical users to sink their
+teeth into.
