This afternoon I head to StellarCon, my second convention in as many weekends. I have a fairly light schedule, which means more time to write! For anyone who cares, my schedule shapes up as follows:
Friday, 03/04/11
- 7 p.m. – Politics and Religion in Sci-Fi and Fantasy (I’m moderating this one!)
Saturday, 03/05/11
- 10 a.m. – Effective Use of POV in Fiction
- 2 p.m. – Science VS. the Story
- 4 p.m. – Tony Ruggiero’s Quick Write!
And that’s it. I’ll also be working at the Baen “Traveling Road Show,” which is always a hoot, and of course I’ll show up to provide moral support at some of my friends’ panels. (And, if history is any indicator, I’ll get recruited to participate in at least one of them.)
I haven’t decided what I’m going to write this weekend. Last weekend at MystiCon I concentrated on songwriting, which is a struggle for me but also a lot of fun.
And speaking of writing, the short story I sent to the Writers of the Future contest last quarter rated an “Honorable Mention.” (I’m actually pleased it did that well.) My WoTF tally now stands at 5 Honorable Mentions and 1 Semi-Finalist out of 12 stories judged. Hopefully they’ll like my 13th entry (sent last month) better!
