Can*Con Appearances

Just a quick word to say that I’ll be a part of Can*Con this year, and I’ll be speaking on two reader panels:

Romance: A Readers’ Panel (4:00 pm, Saturday October 31st, Salon D). Our panel talks about what romance novels are impressing them. Linda Poitevin (m), Nathan Burgoine, Jennifer Carole Lewis, S.M. McEachern, Leslie Brown.

Amazing Short Fiction You Really Ought to Be Reading: (10:00 am, Saturday October 31st; Salon C) The internet has given short fiction a real shot in the arm, and forms up to novella are making a big come-back. Panelists discuss remarkable works you’re missing out on. Nathan Burgoine, Ada Hoffmann, Amy Sisson, Amal El-Mohtar (m).

As always, I’m happy to be the bookseller, and I’m looking forward to meeting new people (and, of course, adding to my massive to-be-read pile). The convention itself is themed towards Canadian content, so those of you in my country, now’s a great time to talk to me about your work – especially if it fits the above two topics and has a wee bit (or more) of a speculative fiction bent.

The full list of events is here.

See you all this weekend!
