Penguicon!
Gary and I will be at Penguicon 6.0 this weekend in Troy, MI. I'll be one of their "nifty" guests, and Gary's pretty much a civilian for a change ;-)

All my panels are currently scheduled to be on Saturday; in addition to a reading slot with Jeff "Timeshredder" deLuzio and John Scalzi, I'll be on:


  • "Basic Survival Skills for Authors"
  • "Excellence in an Economy of Words--Why Write Short Fiction?"
  • "NaNoWriMo: Good idea or waste of time?"
  • "Johnny Can't Read and Nobody Thinks it's a Problem"


Aaand I just realized that in my frenzy to get packed, I've completely failed to pick anything out for my reading. *Puts it on the list*

I hope I'll see some of you there!

It's our first time going to this one, but yes, it looks more than promising :)

Not only will I be there, I believe I'm on two of those panels with you.

i wish I could go. As far as Nanowrimo...I just had my 2006 project from that contract this week, so I can say lots of good things about that time spent :)

I think it should be a fairly lively discussion :)

That looks like such a cool con! It's definitely going on the short list of potential cons for future years...

It's not too far from the hometown (Windsor, Ontario), too, so the trip can do double-duty. Visit family/friends on the way to/from, and maybe drag one or more along with me.
