CONvergence is an annual convention for fans of Science
Fiction and Fantasy in all media, held each July at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Bloomington, MN. It
is insane, and you should go. You can register at the door. The costumes
alone are worth the price.
Last year I went
to CONvergence just to gawk and talk. I had enough fun to return this year in a
more formal capacity. I'll be doing a reading, two panels, and a book
signing. Here's my schedule:
Friday July 5, 2013 11:00am - 12:00pm
Reading
Pete Hautman
reads from his time-travel novel The Cydonian Pyramid, Book 2 of The Klaatu
Diskos.* Panelists: Pete Hautman
Friday July 5, 2013 11:00am - 12:00pm
*In fact, I will be reading from my NEW novel, The Flinkwater Chronicles. Or maybe I'll read a bit from both.
Saturday July 6, 2013 2:00pm - 3:00pm
Panel: Beyond SF 101
There's a lot of
advice out there for the beginning writer, this panel is for those of you who
have moved beyond that point. Panelists: John Klima, Michael Merriam, Monica Valentinelli,
Scott Lynch, Pete Hautman
Saturday July 6, 2013 7:00pm - 8:00pm
Signing: Pete
Hautman/Rob Callahan
Pete Hautman and
Rob Callahan will be available to sign his work. Panelists: Rob Callahan, Pete
Hautman
Sunday July 7, 2013 12:30pm - 1:30pm
Panel: Atheist Authors
How do authors'
personal views influence their works? How does the atheist author approach
writing the fantastic? Panelists: Melinda Snodgrass, Rob Callahan, Kelly McCullough,
Aimee Kuzenski, Pete Hautman
I hope to see some of you there—especially at the reading!
