the plan, although not a very cunning plan....

for those interested in stalking the wild author: my Capclave schedule, as per the last iteration of the website..

Friday 5pm Abusing Authors
Panelists: Eric Choi, Laura Anne Gilman, C.J. Henderson, Lawrence M. Schoen, Alan Smale
Panelists answer whatever questions the audience has on writing, editing, character development, agents, and others. Includes many non-writer-parts-of-being-a-writer, such as being your own boss, setting schedules, and so on.

Saturday 11:30am Reading (either something from WEIGHT OF STONE or the forthcoming PACK OF LIES)

Saturday noon Fiction for the ADD Generation
Panelists: Laura Anne Gilman, Dina Leacock, C. Alan Loewen (M)
Markets are opening up everywhere for stories of 500 to 1,000 words or less and with the advent of Twitter and Facebook, there are markets for stories just a few sentences in length. In this panel we will discuss the markets, the writing techniques, the agony and the ecstasy and the future of writing the super-short story.

Saturday 2pm World Building; planning and execution
Panelists: William Freedman, Laura Anne Gilman, Edward M. Lerner, James Maxey, Bud Sparhawk, John C. Wright
What is it, how do you do it, and why does it matter to the readin experience (and when/why DOESN'T it matter?)

Saturday 2pm-4pm Group Book Launch Party -- I'll be there for the last half-hour after the Worldbuilding panel ends! (yeah I know, but when the scheduling gods command....)

and then from Saturday 4pm-5pm I will be in the "Authors Hallway" to sign books and answer questions/pose for photos/reveal embarrassing facts about my friends and fellow writers....

There is also the official Capclave Autograph Session from 8pm-9pm Saturday night, if you missed me during the day.

I will be Sir Not Appearing At this Convention on Sunday. :-(

And for those in the Harrisonburg/Charlottesville VA areas, remember I'll be in ur bookstores signing ur books on Tuesday and Wednesday nights!

I will be Sir Not Appearing At this Convention on Sunday. :-(

That means you're leaving early?

Oz

[lagilman]

It does. I got an offer I couldn't refuse for Sunday, and since I didn't seem to have any panels that day....

[wolfsilveroak.livejournal.com]

I have it marked on my calendar for the 27th. I'll be there, maybe not with ALL my copies of your books, but a few of them at least.}:P

[badgermirlacca.livejournal.com]

Oh, bring'em all. When are you going to have an opportunity like this one again? It's taken us YEARS to get her down here!

[badgermirlacca.livejournal.com]

Oh, that reminds me. How are you on Moroccan food?

[lagilman]

hey, when was the last time you were HERE, hmmmm?

[lagilman]

the store would no doubt appreciate if you bought at least one from them, while you're having the older books signed.... ;-)

[lagilman]

Nom.

[wolfsilveroak.livejournal.com]

This is true and a very good point.

[wolfsilveroak.livejournal.com]

Problem is, I already have all your books.}:/

I'll have to get there a bit early to browse the shelves for a new book.}:P

[wolfsilveroak.livejournal.com]

Never.

I have honestly never been to NYC.}:/ It's on my Bucklet List though.}:P

So was seeing Alice Cooper in concert and I marked that off on Tuesday. Hee.}:P

Yes I have a strange Bucket LIst.}:P

[lagilman]

you already have your copy of WEIGHT OF STONE? Well then, buy a copy of FLESH AND FIRE for someone who needs to get hooked, then. Voila, holiday shopping done! ;-)

[wolfsilveroak.livejournal.com]

Well no, because Weight of Stone isn't out in paperback yet, right? }:P

[lagilman]

I wouldn't say anything but if we don't sell a few books, the stores will equate me with "do not invite again, ever any store." And that would make me sad...

[wolfsilveroak.livejournal.com]

Aww, no worries, I'll figure something out.}:P

[lagilman]

Bring friends! Lots and lots of friends! ;-)

[badgermirlacca.livejournal.com]

Well, there is that.

Cream or sugar, btw?

[badgermirlacca.livejournal.com]

Oh good. Now all we have to do is figure out before or after.

[wolfsilveroak.livejournal.com]

Heh. SAdly, most of my friends are entire states away.}:P

[fakefrenchie.livejournal.com]

That was me posting about the friend. *Sigh* I forgot to check whether or not I was logged in.

[lagilman]

Sugar.

[lagilman]

Tsk. You missed quite the party....
