Just a reminder that I'll be at Lunacon this weekend, so you'll likely not hear much from me. (Not that you've heard much in the last few days, but . . .)

Here's my schedule again. As far as I know, nothing has changed.


Saturday, March 15th

Reading 11-11:30AM Port Chester

Participants: Joshua Palmatier (reading from The Vacant Throne)

When Fandom and Livejournal Collide 1-2PM Boton

Livejournal had a pretty big year, but we don't necessarily mean that in a positive way. Permanent accounts went on sale for the first time since 2005. Brad left LJ for good in August, about four months prior to Six Apart's sale to the Russian company SUP. And, perhaps most memorably, fandom was outraged by the Great Strikethrough of 2007 in May, and then again by Strikethrough 2: Electric Boogaloo in August. Come discuss your reaction to the events of the past year.

Participants: Patricia Bray[M] [livejournal.com profile] pbray, Jennifer Heddle, Joshua Palmatier


Signings 6-7PM Westchester Assembly

Participants: Keith DeCandido [livejournal.com profile] kradical, David Mack, Joshua Palmatier

Normal Working Chaps 8-9pm Boton

Not all characters can all be heroes, but that doesn't mean that they aren't important. After all, you can't have a colony or society for our heroes to save if no one is milking the cows and preparing the meals. A discussion of how folks like shop keepers, chefs, farmers, cops-on-the-beat figure in our stories, and make them that much richer.

Participants: Barbara Campbell, Alexis Gilliland, Peter Heck[M], Joshua Palmatier

Sunday, March 16th

Building Worlds 101: From Genesis To Apocalypse 12-1pm

How to build (and destroy) realistic and believable settings for your fiction. How to use bits and pieces from our own history to make your world more realistic.

Participants: Alma Alexander[M] [livejournal.com profile] anghara, Jacqueline Carey, Joshua Palmatier, Darrell Schweitzer
