Yes, but "despise" is a little extreme. As for food, it depends on where you live.
Priscellie & I have gotten out appearance schedules...we're all over the place on Friday, and one panel Saturday. Jim & Shannon, are, of course, all over the place every day. I will be arriving Thurs evening, leaving Sunday afternoon.
Tentative schedule:
5 pm – Interstellar Archaeology: Part One – The Discovery (Manchester)
Hosted by Adrian Simmons (M), Taylor Anderson, Mel White, Michael Finn, Rie Sheridan Rose
The first of two panels where we inflict…er discover startling artifacts of OBVIOUS alien origin upon our esteemed panelists. They in turn tell us what the artifacts are. Light hearted fun, and bring a healthy dose of skepeticism!
6 pm Lights, Camera, Internet? – The Life of Stories in Other Media.
Hosted by Priscilla Spencer, Michael Finn, David Gray
The recent rash of comic book and novels turned movies has any writer dreaming of the big screen. Maybe a hopeful writer just dreams of having an internet presence. Or maybe the kid in you wants to see your favorite story serialized in the pages of a comic book. Our experts tell of how this is done, why it is done, and where it should be done…and just maybe IF it should be done.
9 pm – Talking During the Movies (Warwick)
Hosted by Dusty Rainbolt, Lou Antonelli, Michael Finn, and assorted others…
Last year we had a blast tearing apart “Hercules in New York.” With our guests filling in commentary, a good time was had by all. This year’s feature is sure to leave you in stitches as well…
Saturday –
12 pm – ePublishing – Dealing with the Internet (Churchill)
Hosted by Priscilla Spencer, Michael Finn, Teresa Patterson
The ever-present Internet looms above us all. However, it also is the easiest way to get your story out into the public…but what is the best way? Web boards, chat groups, eZines, these will all be discussed by our experts in web technology.
CAVEAT: This is all subject to change. And may I say...poor Teresa.
