Revised Horrorfind Author Schedule

(If you're looking for Deluge, scroll down two entries). We had a few cancellations, due to hurricane-related chaos (authors displaced from their homes, etc.). The schedule has been revised. The big changes are the times for the Bizarro panel, and the addition of the Literary Award ceremony.
