Got my panel schedule for Outlantacon. Can’t believe it’s in less than two weeks!
Friday 4/30, 7PM: “Meet the Guests/Opening Ceremonies” – Mingle with the con attendees as well as some opening remarks by the Con Committee and the Guests of Honor.
Saturday 5/1, 1PM: “Social Activism” – Seemingly traction is being gained across the U.S. for queer rights but what can you do to help? What is the most effective use of your energies?
Saturday 5/1, 4PM: “Getting the word OUT” – I love what I read/see/hear in queer speculative fiction, but how do I tell everyone? How can I keep my favorite authors in print or TV/movie producers putting out new material?
Sunday 5/2, TBA: “Joss Whedon – The single biggest influence in queer themes on TV today?” (tentative)
Also check out this press release. Hope to see folks there!
Whee! Best news on the site! “NEW: Congratulations to Eugie Foster for “Sinner, Baker, Fabulist, Priest; Red Mask, Black Mask, Gentleman, Beast” becoming a finalist for the 2010 Hugo Award in the Novelette category! (The Hugo Awards Site)”
Hee! Aw, shucks.
Oooh, I wish I could go.
I wish you could too! What happened? I thought you were a guest this year?
The economy affects us all… Saints & Sinners is going to end up costing me 2 grand to attend, so I have to curtail other cons.
Ah. Understandable. Bummer. But I’m sure you’ll have an extra-fabu time at Saints & Sinners to make up for it.
wait, you’re not gonna be at Outlantacon?
No. 🙁
awwww man. 🙁
