The
schedule is out for the
GCLS Annual Conference in New Orleans from July 22 to 26, 2015.
The special speaker this year is
Ali Vali and the Keynote speaker is the incomparable,
Dorothy Allison!
I will be on a panel at 9am on Thursday called Dystopian Novels - Who Writes Them, Who Loves Them, Why Are They So Popular?
The moderator is
S.Y. Thompson and the other panelists include
Linda Crist, Elizabeth Hodge and
Linda Kay Silva. Here is the description: Dystopian novels are filling the shelves faster than ever before. Why are these dark thrillers so popular? Are they a precursor to a new genre or a flash in the plan? Hear some of the best discuss their approaches to writing the great dystopian novel!
On Friday at 10:40am, I will be reading from my forthcoming book, Bitter Heart. Other authors in my time slot include
Melissa Price, Elizabeth Hodge,
Baxter Clare Trautman,
