One small step for a redhead…
I got an email a couple of days ago notifying me that I’m going to be on programming at CapriCon 29 (here in the Greater ChicagoLand Area)! This will be my first time on programming anywhere, so I’m nervous and will probably overprepare and the panels will careen immediately off-topic, but it does not matter — I am going to be on the OTHER SIDE of the FLIMSY TABLE! I will probably even have a paper sign with my name on it. (*cue angel chorus*)
Graphic Novels: Hollywood’s Secret Story Stash (Saturday, 4pm)
Pssst…over here Mr. Movie Producer Man. I’ve got a great story to sell ya. It’s about this group of masked adventurers and good vs. evil and morality and ethics…whaddaya mean you read the graphic novel already? It seems like a new movie based on a graphic novel or comic book comes out every other month. What has worked, what hasn’t, and which stories are still to come?
Bob Blackwood (M), Mike Cole, Daniel Levin, Scott Smith, Jenna Waterford <– ME!
Short Fiction: Where Did It Go, How Can I Find It? (Saturday, 5:30pm)
We love short SF! Or we did, until it virtually vanished. Our panelists discuss what happened to the great short fiction markets of old — and where you can still find (and submit to) great short markets today.
Patricia Sayre McCoy (M), John O’Neill, Jenna Waterford <– ME AGAIN!
I’m currently planning on attending only on Saturday.
In only faintly-related news, I’ve scheduled a haircut for tomorrow and an eyebrow… uh… fancifying for Saturday, so by this Saturday at around 11am, I shall be glorious! And I hope I shall remain put-together for the next two weeks so I can remain glorious for my panels!

Oh, whoah, John O’Neill was on that panel, too! He’s the guy that edits Black Gate magazine, which is going to publish my short story, eventually.
Ah–this thing happened months ago, didn’t it? Oh well.
I highly recommend that mag, by the way–very good content-to-cost ratio.

I didn’t get pictures! D’oh! And John O’Neill was really nice — congrats on the story in BlackGate. I have one I think would fit but everytime it’s ready to resub, they’re “temporarily closed.”
