I've been given the opportunity for a reading this Friday night at Philcon.

Opposite the 'meet the pros" block, not to mention prime bar-time.

Who here, if you were attending, would actually go to a reading on Friday night at 9pm?

There seems to be something insulting about not having you on "Meet the Pros."

If it were you? Me. ^_^

well, it's more of a mingle-and-meet deal, cake and punch, etc, not anything formal. I've done literally hundreds of them, over the years.

If I were going to make Philcon (*sighs* I miss Philcon) and it were your reading, I'd go. And at 9pm I might even get to leave the heckling committee (kids) with the husband!

Oh that's tough, I'll agree with the lot, and say I'd show for you, but I gotta think that this late in the game there will be more folks looking for you in the Meet the pros or at the bar then in a panel.

Let us know what you decide, we'll have scotch where ever you are!

I think I'm going to go for the reading, and give it ten minutes. If nobody shows up, then I head for the booze.

Will probably be reading from the forthcoming CURSE THE DARK, if that entices anyone...

I'm not gonna make it to Philcon but if I did, I might go to the reading. I usually arrive around 7/7:30, drop off stuff, get dinner and change, which puts me at loose ends around 9, and it's a little early for parties so program is a definite possibility. I never actually go to meet the pros, lord knows why. (Bar, yes. But it'll be there at 10.)

argh

Cancel that last. They already had me in schedule for a panel at 9pm Friday, one that I'd like to do.

*sigh*

Maybe I'll just grab a corner of the hallway and stage an improvised reading, anyway.

Read in the bar! Read in the bar!

*ehem*

(I think I need caffeine.)

Tell ya what, if the bar's really THAT boring that night, I will.

Might even be a sex scene.

Sorry I have a reservation at Mori Moto's for 9:30 Friday. So you know I will not be there.

That's a tough choice. If the authors I wanted to see were at the meet n' greet, I'd go there. If someone I really liked, like you, was doing a reading, I'd go just to hear something new ahead of time. :>
