And here is my current schedule (subject to change...):

FRIDAY –

Panel Room 3 (Mesquite)

9 pm Yard Dog Road Show


SATURDAY ---

11 am World Building: Imaginary Places and Convincing Spaces
Hosted by Paul Black, Charlee Jacob, Katharine Eliska Kimbriel and Martha Wells. Industry pros discuss the arduous task of building your own world. How do you start? How much is too much? What makes a new world exciting anyway?

1 pm Trends in Fantasy
Hosted by Melanie Miller Fletcher, Katharine Eliska Kimbriel, Lee Martindale and Frances A. May. Industry pros discuss where fantasy fiction is headed. Is the fantasy genre stuck in rut or is there exciting fresh fantasy fiction being written even today? Who is breaking the rules and what do we want to see more of?
