Philcon

This weekend, I'll be at Philcon in downtown Philadelphia. The con is being held at the Sheraton Philadelphia City Center Hotel (formerly the Wyndham Franklin Plaza). My schedule at the moment consists of the following panels:


Sat 4:00 PM
BAD WRITING HABITS AND HOW TO AVOID THEM

Everything from sloppy proof reading to finding excuses not to write
and how to avoid them.


Sun 11:00 AM
NETWORKING

How the new writer should go about meeting editors and agents.

Sun 2:00 PM
RELIGIONS CREATED FOR FANTASY OR SCIENCE FICTION

The religions that authors create as part of the plot or setting.


I will likely also have a reading, but we're supposed to sign up for one of those when we arrive. So look for a posting or a flyer indicating when authors are reading once you get to the con.



Hope to see you there!

thats just evil.

Of course, I suppose one piece of advice he can give in the "how not to avoid writing" part will be "not to start a room painting project while writing"

Yes, mentioning painting projects would be good. Perhaps it's time for the rumored naked painting photos?

No naked paining photos!! At least of me. Boytoys painting naked would be permitted.

This is also already in my notes. Along with not planning a flood. *grin*
