For those who missed my Facebook posts about my impending travel and appearances in the USA, here are the details of my events in Columbus, Atlanta, and Salem, including panel times etc. I leave home on October 23 and my responses on this page may be a little patchy from then until mid-November.
World Fantasy Convention, Columbus,OH, Oct 27-30 at the Hyatt Regency Hotel
Note; apart from the event marked **, these events are open to registered WFC attendees only.
Fri Oct 28: I’m reading from 11.30 to 12 in Union C.
Fri Oct 28: Mass book signing 8-11pm
Sat Oct 29: 1-2pm in Delaware CD: Panel – ‘When did Fantasy Separate from the Mainstream’
**Sat Oct 29: 2.15-3.45pm in the Garfield Room, first floor: Private event for my readers (open to people not attending WFC.) Reading, Q&A and signing, but no book sales. Further details can be found on the Facebook page under Events. We are close to full, so anyone wanting to come at this stage needs to message or email me asap to get their name on the list. I may have room for a couple more.
Sat Oct 29: 5-6pm in Union AB: Panel – ‘Old Stories, New Twists’ – on YA retellings. Should be a good one.
CONjuration, Atlanta, Nov 4-6 at the Atlanta Marriott Century Center
Note: events listed below are open only to registered CONjuration attendees.
Fri Nov 4: 5pm Opening Ceremony
Sat Nov 5: 3-3.45pm Den of Wolves book launch. I’ll be talking and reading, with Q&A. There will be books for sale and I will be available for signing after the launch.
Sat Nov 5: 9-9.45pm: Panel – ‘Writing Magic Right’
Sun Nov 6: 10-11.45am ‘To Tell the Truth – Or Not’ – a panel of writers responds to audience questions and people have to guess whether we are telling the truth. I think someone is judged best storyteller, and I am quite sure it won’t be me!
Writer Unboxed ‘Unconference’, Salem, Massachusetts, Nov 7-11
The Unconference is an event for writers and is not open to the public, except for a mass signing from 7-8pm on Wednesday Nov 9, in the ballroom at the Hawthorne Hotel. I will be part of that, and there will be books for sale. All welcome to drop in, have books signed and chat with me.
*Friday Nov 11: Special meet and greet at the Jolie Tea Company, 6-8pm – this event is full, sorry, with no possibility of squeezing anyone else in.
