FOG LIT SCIENCE-FICTION WORKSHOP


On October 5th, I'll be doing a Science-Fiction Writing workshop for the Fog Lit Festival in St. John, New Brunswick. This is a 'free to attend' sponsored event, so if you're in the area and want to talk Science-Fiction, by all means, come on down. Space is limited, so I urge you to sign up to guarantee a seat.

This workshop will focus on the pitfalls and challenges of writing genre fiction -- in this case Science-Fiction Adventure. Together, we'll discuss typical story elements, world building, and the challenges of dealing with real science in a fictional world.

Participants will be asked to bring in a synopsis or blurb of their current or planned project so that we can spend as much time talking about your characters and ideas as possible.

Ages: All Ages
Date: Saturday, October 5th
Time: 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Venue: Saint John Free Public Library

NOTE: Later that day (same location), I'll also be participating in the panel discussion on Indie vs. Traditional Publishing. On the panel with me will be Chad Pelley and Laurie Lewis. I'm really looking forward to this. Should be interesting and informative.
