Tomorrow morning, I get on a plane and head for upstate New York for the World Fantasy Convention 2007. It will be my first World Fantasy ever, if you don’t count the one where the World has me tied up to a four-poster bed and we’re having a menage a trois with the Moon.
I will be doing a reading on Sunday, November 4 at 10:30 a.m. Which really didn’t seem like such a bad time to be reading until I realized that that morning is when Daylight Savings Time begins. Or ends. I can never remember which, and to be perfectly frank, the only reason I don’t miss all my appointments twice a year is because the computer automatically changes the clock for me. So your best bet is to get up bright and early, head down to Broadway 1, and sit through all the readings by me, Lilith Saintcrow, Bruce Coville, and Wen Spencer. What, you have something better to do Sunday morning?
My current plans are to bring both my short story “Mathralon” (scheduled for publication in the Solaris Book of New Science Fiction, Volume 2 early next year) and the first few chapters of MultiReal. Depending on the mood of the vast, uncountable masses who will be swarming in to hear me, I’ll read one or both.
If you can’t make it that morning because you happen to be chained to some heavy appliance (and it’d better be a really heavy appliance, or I expect you to drag that sucker with you), look for me in the bar.
Oh, and I’ll be renting a car too, because I’m staying at a hotel about 8 miles away. Anyone looking for last-minute transportation, let me know. I’d be more than happy to do some chauffeuring in exchange for some portion of the car rental price.
