I’m kind of ashamed to admit this.
But I’ve waited long enough.
It’s time I came out and said it.
Ready? Okay. Here we go.
Deep breath.
Ahem. So, the thing is, I’ve never . . .
Been to a comic con before.
Ever.
Evvvv-errr.
So I have no idea what to expect. Well, I mean, I have some idea — they sent me an “Event Guide” roughly as ginormous as the Yellow Pages. So much to do!
If you’re going to the Denver Comic Con, come see me at these two events:
#1. Stranger Things: The Horror of Alternate Realities
Friday, June 15 at 12:30pm – 1:20 pm. Room 605.
Science fiction, fantasy, and horror can all work together. S. J. Reisner, Wendy Terrien, Andre Gonzalez, Shawn Harper and Laurence MacNaughton discuss how genres combine in Stranger Things and why we love our genres crossed.
#2. Writing workshop: 7 Secrets to Creating Bloodcurdling Monsters
Saturday June 16 at 2:00pm – 2:50 pm. Room 404.
Science fiction, fantasy, and horror stories are chock full of monsters. One of a writer’s toughest jobs is creating creatures that are both gripping and original. In this workshop, you’ll learn the seven secrets to making truly unforgettable monsters.
By the way, this is the very first time I’ve taught this workshop anywhere. It comes with a nifty downloadable workbook explaining exactly how to make your own monsters. If you’d like to get your own copy, just subscribe to my author newsletter.
