WriterCon

[rm]

I leave for WriterCon tomorrow afternoon and should land in Minneapolis around 8pm.

If you're going to be at the con, please come check out the programming I'm involved with:

Saturday, 10am:
Sharks Vs Jets: Writing Fight Scenes

Saturday, 6pm:
Torchwood/Doctor Who spoiler-filled bar event

Saturday, 8pm:
The Language of Love: How Sex Scene Descriptives Color the Overall Story

You can also come say hi in the vendors room, where I'll be manning a table with authors Martha Wells and Elle Parker. We'll all have our books available for sale and hope you'll spend some dosh with us!


I also want to recommend:

Friday, 2pm:
Is Fandom Gonna Have to Choke a Bitch? Language and Gender in Fanfiction

Saturday, 10am:
If You Build It, They Will Come: How the Internet Builds Communities Around Fanfic which includes kalichan

Saturday, 2pm:
Slash: Gay, Queer, Both, Neither? because I think the topic is really important

Sunday, 10am:
Cage Match: Science vs. Magic which includes kalichan

Sunday, 2pm:
Evil in Our Midst: Racism, Sexism, and Homophobia in Fandom includes invisible_lift and kalichan. This panel is right at the end of the con, probably to prevent any tension from it form spilling out to the rest of the con. I do wish it was earlier in the weekend, as I, and probably others, will miss it because we need to get on our flights out. But if you're there, I'd recommend going.
