Conflux Here I Come!

This weekend I'll be attending Conflux, a science fiction convention held in Canberra. Now, I'd normally link to the convention website but for some reason it makes my browser crash (so this is the second time I'm constructing this blog entry - sigh). All I can suggest is that you google "conflux 2007" if you want to find it.

The panels I'll be on are: 

Saturday 9am - Prayer and Prophet – making your own religion.
Sunday 4pm - How to hire henchmen – a guide for the overlord. (chairing)
Monday 11am - Arrggghhh! The worst heroes in sci fi and fantasy.
Monday 3pm - It came in a dream – how to generate ideas.

I'm also joining forces with Russell Kirkpatrick on Saturday at 12am to launch In Bad Dreams, a horror anthology. And I'll be gobbling up tasty treats at Sunday night's Recency Gothic Banquet.

This Thursday, before the con begins, I'll be signing books at Dymocks Belconnen. I think at around 4 or 5pm. There'll be a few other authory bods there signing books too. I've gone looking for info on their blogs, but it seems they're being just as slack as I have been about posting about it. Or maybe I got the wrong names. Or maybe they all pulled out and I'm the only one going! (Not likely, these gigs are usually a lot of fun.)

Hmm. Well, I will be there barring illness or death. But if you're keen to come get my unique personal scribble on your books, you'd best ring the shop to confirm times.
