So as I write this I am in Jersey City, New Jersey, preparing to tear down my computer and head for the airport, where a big metal sky-bird will carry me to Chattanooga, Tennessee, land of the Chattanooga choo-choo, endless Cthulhu parodies, and ConNooga, an awesome media convention with the good taste to ask me to be a Guest of Honor!
My schedule for the weekend:
Friday, 4:00 PM, Room 12: Writing Dialog. Saturday, 1:00 PM, Room 12: Reading, Q/A: Seanan McGuire/Mira Grant. Saturday, 5:00 PM, Room 12: Diversity in Fiction: What is it, How to do it, and Why.
I will be in the main exhibit hall a great deal of the time, happy to sign things, meet people, and complain bitterly about the cold.
How to do diversity in fic? I'm so mad that, after all these years (decades?) "diversity in fic" still has to be a thing. It should be mainstream already. And don't even get me started on the Smurfette Syndrome.
