Event Horizon — I’m At Natcon
Yes that’s right, I’m in Auckland for UnConventional, the National Science Fiction Fantasy Convention, with Trudi Canavan as international Guest of Honour.
Here’s my programme:
- Women in Fantasy and SF: Saturday 2nd, 3pm — Damsels, love interests, butt-kickers. Just what is the place of women in the genre and how has it changed? Panelists: Trudi Canavan, Lyn McConchie, Helen Lowe, Mary Victoria
- Worldbuilding: Saturday 2nd, 5pm — The thing that differentiates SF & F from the rest of fiction writing is the extent to which worldbuilding becomes integral to the writing process. The panel of authors discuss how they go about it. Panelists: Helen Lowe, Russell Kirkpatrick, Trudi Canavan, Simon Petrie
- Promoting your Book: Sunday 3rd, 11am — How do you make your stuff sell? Writers and editors discuss what they do to get the word out there. Panelists: Trudi Canavan, Helen Lowe, Stephen Minchin, Grace Bridges
- Reading: Sunday 3rd, 4 pm
And I’ll be blogging in a few daily reports on my personal highlights…
See you soon! 🙂
