Hello, internets! I am at WisCon, the feminist sf convention. I will be attempting (hopefully with success this year) to write up panel reports for all of the awesome programming I attend for the various blogs here at Hathor, and I’ll also be sitting on several panels myself. Here’s a preview of what I’m planning on right now (subject to change, no doubt):
- Toys: The Other Childhood Fixation We Didn’t Leave Behind (I’m a panelist for this one)
- Not Enough Octopuses (best. panel title. ever.)
- Women Writing Speculative Poetry (I’m the moderator)
- Balancing Creativity and the Day Job
- Two Heads With But a Single Brain (about co-writing. Karen Healey from girl-wonder.org and I will be attending together)
- Historical Research for Fiction Writers
- Curses! YA Villains Unite
- The Slayer’s Legacy (about Buffy’s effect on SF TV and fandom)
- Cliche or Trope?
- Can Internet Drama Change the World?
- Roleplaying: Gender and Heroism
- The Eclipse One Cover Debate (I think I am a last-minute-addition panelist here)
- Violence, Destruction, Degradation and Catharsis (panelist)
- Gender in Virtual Worlds (panelist)
I’ll also be at the Capes and Consoles party tomorrow night, which Cerise Magazine and girl-wonder.org are co-hosting. Should be awesome!

Neato! It’d be super-fun to hang out with you and talk sci-fi.
