My Schedule at Can-Con

9/20/2012

 
Just a quick note to tell you about my schedule at Can-Con.

Friday 7p.m.

Book launch of Blood and Water.  Short readings by Kate Heartfield, Jean-Louis Trudel, Derek Künsken, and Agnes Cadieux.  There will be books on sale at 25% off (special offer good for launch only).  And Snacks!

Friday 8 p.m

OPENING CEREMONIES -- I have a speech.  I promise to be bright, brief and bold.  I'll try to be funny too.  Your mileage may vary.

Friday 9 p.m.

Blood and Water Party.  It's in my suite.  Watch for the signs.  There will be snacks.  There will be drinks.  At midnight, I turn into a Troll and ask you to leave.  It's also my bedroom.

Saturday 1pm

Kaffeeklatch.  Bring your own coffee.  It's not in the bar.  Room 2, I think.  Come chat, ask questions.  It's after 12 so I should be fit to answer them.  (Thank you Derek for not scheduling me on the morning after I host a party)

Saturday 2pm

The East Block Irregulars Go to Chicago: WorldCon as a business adventure for writers
Hayden Trenholm, Marie Bilodeau, Derek Künsken.  

Saturday 5pm

Writing Idol: Bring a page or two of your story (no names attached).  I'll read it aloud until 2 or more of our judges give the thumbs down.  Followed by a brief insta-critique.  There will be blood tonight!  With Alan Neal, Eric Choi, Leah Bobet, Paul Jarvey

Saturday 7pm

Media Guest of Honour Alan Neil interviews Author Guest of Honour Hayden Trenholm for CBC’s All in a Day.  Pretty much covers it.  It will be edited for radio so come hear the parts CBC doesn't want you to hear.

Saturday 8pm (panel ends at 8:45)

Creating Intensively: the 30-day novel, the 3-day novel, the 24-hour comic book and Clarion Write-a-thon. Hayden Trenholm, Dominic Bercier, Nicole Lavigne, Kate Heartfield.  I won the 3-day novel competition and finished second (twice) in a 24-hour play-writing competition as well.  I wish I could still write that fast.

Sunday 11am

The Realities of Space Travel: Economics and Exploration  Eric Choi , Hayden Trenholm (M), Cenk Gokce, Jean-Louis Trudel  I promise to drink lots of coffee before showing up.  (Not the world's greatest morning person).

Sunday 1pm

Editors: Anthology Editors discuss editing The Dragon and the Stars, Blood and Water and Imaginarium  Hayden Trenholm, Sandra Kasturi, Eric Choi  You've been to the launch, bot the book (right?) and drunk (for free!) at the party, now hear how Blood and Water was put together.

Sunday 2pm

Lessons of the Script  Kristopher Waddell (film), Hayden Trenholm (plays), Dominic Bercier (comics)


Whew!  It's a busy couple of days.  I'll be around for an hour or two after I finish my programming but since I have to fly to Yellowknife in the morning -- don't look for me at the dead dog!
