Permanent Oink is
planning an adventure. October 10-12 Jilly and I will be attending Creatures,
Crime and Creativity Con in Hunt Valley, Maryland. The three day conference is
jam packed with learning and networking opportunities. The event is sponsored
by Intrigue Publishing, a local publisher.
The C3 Con is a hybrid
of a writer’s and fan conference. There are “Master’s Classes” for writer to be
taught by John Gilstrap, Rebecca York and other bestselling authors.
John Gilstrap is the author of the Jonathan Graves series set in the Virginia area. Saturday he’ll be teaching the Master’s class for crime fiction writers on the technical “stuff” we often get wrong. He’ll also be the keynote speaker on Saturday night. Rebecca York will be teaching the class on world building. And Brad Parks will be teaching us how to hold the reader’s attention.
If you’re interested you can register just for Saturday at a
cost of $135. The one day registration
include three meals and the choice between 20 panels for readers and writers. And you
get to hear John Gilstrap speak at dinner.
On Friday at 4 pm I'll be on a panel discussion of
Social media – Can you survive as an author without it? Also on the panel is Weldon Burge, and Bags Hightower.
On Saturday I will moderating the discussion of Characters: How to keep them fresh and exciting. Authors on the panel are Brad Parks, Kathryn Johnson, and Brandon Patterson.
Jilly will be sitting on the panel discussing, What do Fans want? Also on the panel will be Tom and Marie O'Day. Moderator is Sandra Bowman.
And Oinkwell and Oinkpen (though Oinkpen has rough year) will be there, too, trying to get their photos taken with all the writers and teachers. They’re such hams.
