Will you be at RoundCon?

I can't believe how fast February is flying by. I swear I blinked and opened my eyes to find the first third of the month had already passed. I guess time has never been my friend, but the middle of the month means that one of the events I'm looking forward to is right around the corner.

This year I will be kicking off my conference and convention season the weekend of the 18th with RoundCon, a fantasy and gaming convention right in the heart of Columbia, SC. Faith Hunter (Rogue Mage and Jane Yellowrock series), Misty Massey (Mad Kestrel), and I met not so long ago to plan and propose some topics for the con's creative track, and it looks like everything is set to go. There will be a great selection of creative guests (as well as gaming and anime tracks if your geek-nature swings those directions) so it looks like it will be a great weekend. Here are some of the topics planned:
Pitch Session Tactics Pitch like the major leagues and learn how to increase your chance to sell your book.Fiction to Gaming, How Hard Can it Be?Books with Pictures The new popularity of comics and the novel-to-comic transition.The Flawed HeroBuilding Magic Systems Learn how to develop you own magic system for your fiction or game universe!Post Apocalyptic / Alternate Reality What? My world isn't weird enough already?The Battle Over Sex Paranormal Romance vs. Urban Fantasy, vs. EroticaOpen Forum - Ask the Writers You have questions. We have answers.Sound like fun? I'm hoping so!
This will be my first time as a guest at RoundCon, but as this is a smaller con, I have the feeling the panelists will have more time and availability to interact and address questions from the attendees--especially in the open forums!--than at some of the larger cons, so if you have questions you've always wanted to ask a published writer, this would be a great opportunity.

I hope to see you there!-Kalayna Price
