I get to go to ICFA. Thank you very much, my friends who donated miles so I got a ticket.
I will fly away to Florida Tuesday, March 15. I will fly back home Tuesday, March 22.
Here is my schedule:
Thurday, March 17, 10:30 a.m. to noon, I'll be on a panel about writing SF/F nonfiction in Vista B. Gary Wolfe is the moderator, and my copanelists are Gwenda Bond, Graham Sleight, and Liza Trombi. I can talk about reviewing books and editing reviews, co-editing the Butler anthology, editing WisCon Chronicles. Others will probably get a word in edgewise. Should be good, but it's opposite Terry Bisson's reading, so hmmmm.
Friday, March 18 at 10:30 p.m. to midnight I'll participate in the "Smut and Nothing But" reading with Jennifer Stevenson and Gary Wolfe and maybe Nalo Hopkinson, and Irma-I-Don't-Know. In the Cypress room. I will read an unpublished lesbian gryphon-on-mermaid piece.
Saturday, March 19 at 2 p.m. to 3:30 I'll read with two other authors in Vista A. And wow. The other two authors are Jack McDevitt and Karen Lord. Yes, that Karen Lord, winner of this year's Crawford Award. I plan to read an excerpt from my Belgian Congo steampunk novel-in-progress. I hope I am good.
Sunday I want to roadtrip to Gainesville to visit MJ Hardman. Don't know how I'm going to pull that off. We shall see.
