Celebration VI Odds and Ends

If you’re going to be in attendance at Celebration VI and want to catch up with us (we’re not scary, I promise), you can find us with this tentative schedule. As we’ve mentioned before, we do have some Tosche Station swag to hand out! If you time things right, you might even get to be an impromptu guest on this week’s podcast.

I’d also suggest that if you’re going to CVI or any major convention, you head on over to Club Jade and read their convention tips. There’s a lot of practical advice to survive cons as well as some behavioral advice.

Looking for an interesting event or two to attend at Celebration VI? Give one of the author workshop panels a chance. Even if you’re not a writer yourself, it’s fascinating to see how their creative processes work. Aaron Allston and Timothy Zahn in particular put on great clinics that you should check out. As a note, if you’re going to be at Dragon*Con, you should consider attending Mike Stackpole’s 21 Days to a Novel workshop as well.

Can’t make it to Celebration VI? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Both Nanci and myself will be at major panels and events where announcements are likely to occur, such as the Dark Horse 2013 and Future of Star Wars Books panels. While we will have blog posts up shortly after such events recapping the news, you can get that information even faster by following the official blog and podcast Twitter account.

For various observations, hastily taken cell phone pictures, and snark from the conventions themselves, you can also follow both myself and Nanci on Twitter.
