Previous Entry Add to Memories Tell a Friend Next Entry
I'll be at Readercon in Burlington Mass. as of Thursday this coming week.  I'll be staying through Sunday.  Here's a schedule of some of the things I'll be doing if you want to stop by and catch my act. 

Friday 3:00 PM, VT: Group Reading

_Interfictions 2_ Group Reading (60 min.)  Delia Sherman (host) with
Amelia Beamer, K. Tempest Bradford, Matthew Cheney, F. Brett Cox, Michael
DeLuca, Jeffrey Ford, Theodora Goss, Alaya Dawn Johnson, Shira Lipkin,
Rachel Pollack, Catherynne M. Valente, Genevieve Valentine

Readings from _Interfictions 2: An Anthology of Interstitial Writing_,
edited by host Sherman and Christopher Barzak and forthcoming in the fall
from Small Beer Press under the auspices of the Interstitial Arts
Foundation.

Friday 7:00 PM, Salon B: Panel

Edgar Allan Poe.  M. M. Buckner, F. Brett Cox, Jeffrey Ford, Adam Golaski,
Theodora Goss, Walter H. Hunt (L)

This year marks the bicentennial of Poe's birth in Boston.  We'll discuss
the relationship of his life to his work and his importance to the
development of genre.  Shorn of that context, just how great a writer was
he, and in what ways?

Saturday 12:00 Noon, Salon F: Autographing

Saturday 1:00 PM, NH / MA: Reading (30 min.)
 a new short story (unpublished).

I'll also be at the Shirley Jackson Awards ceremony, which is at 11:00 AM on Sunday.

Richard: I'll miss seeing you there. It looks like from the participants list that there a lot of people who usually go who are not attending this year for one reason or another.

Hi Jeffrey, the reading today was really great. I was so psyched to meet you that I just mumbled a bunch of nonsense about reading your blog and totally forgot to tell you that you're my favourite short story writer and reading your stories in various anthologies was how I got into hunting down all your novels. I was hitting myself on the head afterwards.

Have a great weekend at ReaderCon!
