My LTUE schedule

[agilebrit]

Thursday, 3pm: Genre Mash-ups: Isn’t it all just fiction anyway?: S. A. Butler, Julie Frost, L.E. Modesitt Jr., Dan Wells, Suzanne Vincent (m). I write genre-mashups all the time. Werewolf private eyes, haunted spaceships, a mad scientist married to a werewolf with a butler who spent time in the Fae...

Friday, 5pm: Treating Religion Fairly: Writing a real religion: Julie Frost, L.E. Modesitt Jr., Helge Moulding, Eric James Stone, Suzanne Vincent. As someone who writes a fair amount of angel and demon fiction, I'm pretty stoked about this one. Christian characters were punching bags for a long time in SFF (and, like, every other genre); it's nice to see the pendulum swinging the other way.

Saturday, 2pm: Gun use in fiction: Scott Bascom, Larry Correia, Mike Kupari, Julie Frost. I'm woefully outgunned (ha) on this panel. I'll make the Hubby take me to the range beforehand so I can actually, you know. Shoot something way more recently than I have.

It's going to be awesome.

I started following Larry Correia (monsterhunternation.com/) purely because of you. I am intensely interested in any reporting you can make from this ’Con — including your observations of him or just whatever you have to say — and will follow it with avid interest.

Larry is awesome, and he does not suffer fools--and he loves me. He's a giant (literally, he's something like 6'5") teddy bear in person, and an excellent raconteur.

I'll do my best to put together some kind of con report. :)

What's LTUE?

Life, the Universe, and Everything, a writers' symposium in Provo/Orem, Utah, held every year around Valentine's Day. It's fantastic, and the new venue is amazeballs.
