Next weekend, that's March 8-10, I'll be headed down to San Diego to attend the ConDor convention. Their theme for this year is "There and Back Again: Journeys in Fantasy and Science Fiction." I'm really excited to go, not only because Connie Willis is the author guest of honor, but because there are just so many awesome people coming! David Peterson, the creator of Dothraki for Game of Thrones, will be there, and I'll be rooming with the ever-wonderful Lillian Csernica and Pat McEwen.
Do please, if you are in the area, consider attending! I always love to meet my internet friends. Here's my schedule for the weekend:
Friday, March 8 at 4pm -
Retelling old stories - the new fairy tales
with Cecil Castellucci, Michael Underwood, Lillian Csernica, and Laura Luchau
Friday, March 8 at 5pm -
The inadvertent time traveller - what to do when dumped in another era
with Lillian Csernica, Maudlin, Connie Willis, and Scott Norton
Saturday, March 9 at 1pm -
Worldbuilding - biology and sentient races
with Jefferson Swycaffer, Sheila Finch, Patricia McEwen, and Barbara Kesel
Saturday, March 9 at 3pm -
Autographs!
with Lillian Csernica and Patricia McEwen
Sunday, March 10 at 11am -
Worldbuilding - culture and society
with Eldon Thompson, Art Holcomb, David Peterson, and Lillian Csernica
I hope you can make it!
Sounds wonderful!
ReplyDeleteSan Diego is a cool place to visit, and sounds like two good friends.
As it happens, my wife and I will be heading for Japan, to visit her family. We'll get a rail pass, and go see Kyoto and other sights.
All the best, Paul Carlson
Paul, that sounds like an awesome trip! I would love to go to Kyoto. :) Have a great time.
DeleteKyoto is wonderful. I've been there three times and loved it each time.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm looking forward to seeing Juliette (and meeting her in person for the first time) in San Diego!
