I Should Be Writing

[ISBW] Year End Celebration!


Listen Later

This is the final I Should Be Writing for 2021. I am taking some time off to plan 2022, changes to the Patreon, and just get some rest. I will still be streaming from time to time, writing my newsletter, and posting to Patreon.

WorldCon is December 15-19! Here's my schedule:

  • 12-16 Thursday 5-7pm, Public Hugo Nominee Reception, Ambassador Ballroom (I will try to make the end of this, but I get in at 5pm and have no idea how hard it will be to get to the hotel.)
  • 12-17 Friday 1pm The Softer Side of Science Fiction, Blue Room 2:30pm Escape Artists Meetup, Ambassador Ballroom
  • 12-18 Saturday 1pm The Magnificent Novella, Blue Room 8pm The Hugo Awards! (Eee!)

I don't have a Kaffeklatch, a signing, or a reading, so I'm a bit unhappy with that, but the con has been beset by many problems, COVID not the only one, and I'm trying to be understanding. That said, if you want something signed, hit me up after a panel or if you see me around.

I'm hoping to have custom postcards for y'all. Wish me luck.

Twitch schedule for December: Best to follow on Twitch, because, frankly, because of holidays and Worldcon, I'm not sure what I can promise, but the goal is:

  • Mondays: 1-3pm
  • Tues-Thurs: 3-5pm

I WANT to stream from WorldCon, but I'm not sure if I will be able to.
