Inside the Storyteller's Studio: Meet Our Hat.

catvalente and I will be appearing "in conversation" at the upcoming WorldCon. While we have a few topics of our own to cover, we thought it might be nice to see what other people want us to talk about. We're going to try to get this videotaped, thus giving y'all a much greater stake in the discussion than you might otherwise have. So...

Have a topic you'd like to see discussed by me and Cat, probably while under the influence of a lot of sugar? Drop it here! We'll copy out our favorites and put them into a hat (or hat-shaped object), to be drawn during our conversation whenever we need a subject change.

It'll be fun!

Characters surprising you. Characters taking over and going entirely other directions than you intended. Plot twists in your own books that you didn't see coming.

Agreed!

ETA: Also, myths/folktales you wish got more screen-time in modern-day retellings, and myths/folktales you wish could sit on the sidelines for a little bit so others could have a turn.

...or "things" taking over in that manner like locations, items...
