This Weekend: Context and Context Writers Workshop

September 30th 2005 at 11:58 am

I’ve been bad about updating my ‘appearances’ area, but I will be at Context, a small book-focused convention in Columbus, Ohio, this weekend on Saturday and Sunday. I am one of 3 writers teaching the workshop. Here is my schedule:

Saturday:

9am-11am: Writing Workshop, Lectures

11:15-12: Reading (I’ll read a selection from my upcoming novel, Crystal Rain)

3pm-5pm: Writing Workshop, critiquing

6pm-8pm: Writing Workshop, critiquing

9pm: Panel (Why Some People Hate SF and What We Can Do About It)

Sunday:

9am-11am: Writing Workshop, Lectures

11:45: panel (What Will We Do When the 3rd World Catches Up Technologically)

1pm: panel (Writing Short Stories vs Novels)

Looks like a busy weekend!

Update: Arggh.

Context is next weekend. I swapped last year’s date with this year’s and put it in the wrong weekend on my calendar.

I give up my organization crown, unworthy that I am.
