swan_towerIf you are San Francisco Bay Area-local, or capable of traveling here in March, you might want to check out FOGcon. It's a new con starting up March 11-13, with a theme this year of "The City in SF/F;" having looked at their programming possibilities, they definitely have some interesting and varied ideas for how to approach that topic.
I'll be there, and will presumably be on at least one panel. Furthermore -- I guess it's official, since it got mentioned in the recent newsletter -- I'll be running one of their writing workshops. Looks like the setup will be stories under 10K, submitted with cover letter by February 15th; default arrangement is for a Clarion-style workshop, with each student reading and critting the other pieces in addition to the instructor's feedback. Erin Cashier, Jed Hartman, and David Levine are the other instructors, and we're each getting our own section, so if you have a preference for one or another of us (or want to specifically run away from me), mention that in your cover letter.
(This will actually be the first time I've run a workshop like this at a con. But I have taught writing before, for one semester.)
Anyway, if you're interested, register soon! I hope to see some of you there.
