BristolCon 2014

October 25th is BristolCon! I’m really looking forward to attending this welcoming and human-sized  convention. Here are the events I’ll be participating in:

13.00 Writing Historical Fantasy: If you want to write historical fantasy, you need to do a lot of research, and it can seem daunting. Where do you start, and when can you deviate into the realms of alternate history? What do you gain from basing your fantasy story in the real-world past?

with Pete Sutton , Jon Courtenay Grimwood, Sarah Ash, Jacey Bedford, Mike Shevdon

And then, in the Art Room:

16.00 Hyakki Yagyou – The Night Parade of One Hundred Demons: meet some fascinating and terrifying creatures from Japanese folklore as portrayed in anime and manga. Sarah Ash (Anime UK News) provides a brief introduction to the hidden world of the youkai.
