Balticon schedule, take 2

[pbray]

I'd glanced at the Balticon schedule before leaving work, so it's only now sinking in that I'm now scheduled 3 straight hours on Saturday. At least the last event is an autographing rather than another panel.

Friday 8PM -- Opening Reception

Saturday 3PM -- Chat with the the Compton Crook Winners (ask us anything!)

Saturday 4PM -- Real Women Warriors: Tell us about characters that look, sound and feel realistic - and real women who are warriors

Saturday 5PM -- Autograph table (I can haz lizards! U can 2!)

Monday 11AM -- Readers: You've Read the First Novel. What determines whether you want to read more by this author?

Note that my Sunday is entirely free.

I think that we should go to the movies on Sunday.

But I will be there to drag you to the bar immediately after autographing . . . or during. *grin*

PS--We'll need to leave immediately after your panel on Monday, since I need to be back to teach at the gym on Monday night at 5:30.

Absolutely! I will bring movie schedule to signing on Saturday so we can choose.

We can pack car ahead of panel and flee immediately.

As a minion, I'll expect you to fetch drinks for Laura Anne and myself. Possibly large ones, depending on how our con is going by 5PM on Saturday....

We should hang. I can fetch drinks for you, too. I have five books for you to sign, so I'll consider it ample payment.

The only thing I have of interest Sunday is the Baen Books event at 2pm, but only because they're giving away books. I was telling Podcasting's Rich Sigfrit last night that I love Sunday matinee prices. There's going to be a mass exodus of New Media attendees that afternoon, I think.

Yes, we definitely need to hang out.

Sweet. Tee is going to sit in on the interview if that's okay. I figured it would be. Also, you think jpsorrow would like to be interviewed, too?

[elaine-brennan.livejournal.com]

I was going to say that clearly autographing would be the time to smuggle liquor down to pbray and surricatus!

Tee is a cool person to hang out with, so that will be great. And Professor Josh is always ready to talk-- just call him IRON PROF!

[pbray.livejournal.com]

Great minds think alike! And after two or three drinks I may even spell my name correctly.

Or not. Even sober, it's always a 50/50 shot.

[jpsorrow.livejournal.com]

You did not just call me IRON PROF! as an introduction to an interview.

[jpsorrow.livejournal.com]

I would love to be interviewed. Umm . . . what is the interview for? *grin*

[jpsorrow.livejournal.com]

I will act as minion and provide drinks for the thirsty and haggard authors.

It will be carried on the podcasts Dragonpage Cover to Cover http://www.dragonpage.com, Adventures in SciFi Publishing http://www.adventuresinscifipublishing.blogspot.com, and my own, The Adventures of Indiana Jim http://podcast.indianajim.net.

Oh she sooooo just did!

And this is why we disallowed webcams at our HLSFS gatherings.
