SF in SF this Saturday! Be there!

So this Saturday is going to be my very first SF in SF (Science Fiction in San Francisco), and I am both elated and terrified. This is a combination that only remains fun for short periods of time, so I'm calling on all local people to please, please come and help. How can you help? By attending.

I'll be appearing with the fantastic Deborah Grabien. There's going to be a reading, followed by a question and answer session/interview moderated by Terry Bisson. So that should be a lot of fun. The doors open at six, and there will be book sales (courtesy of Borderlands Books), as well as refreshment sales (because boozy authors are more fun than the sober kind).

The event is going to take place at The Variety Preview Room, at 582 Market Street, in the first floor of The Hobart Building. It's literally right next to the Montgomery Street BART Station, so it's totally accessible and awesome. There will be audience participation for the Q&A, and time for hanging out and signing books in the lounge before the event ends at nine-thirty.

Proceeds from the events go to the Variety Children’s Charity.

And while we're on the topic...what do you think I should read? Seanan-style writings only, please; anything by Mira Grant is off the table for this specific event.

Hope to see you there!

SF in SF's are fun - have you been to very many?

I'm kind of bummed about the "no Mira Grant" as I'd like to experience your reading of "Everglades." "Dying With Her Cheer Pants On," perhaps?

Good luck!

I've never been to one! Are you going to attend?

I did "Cheer Pants" for Writers With Drinks; I'm thinking I'll bring "A Citizen In Childhood's Country" and "Indexing," and then read to suit the mood of the room.

If it's okay with you, I plan to attend.
