The full programming will be available on the Renovation website in a day or two (This year’s Worldcon is in Reno this year from August 17-21).

I’m super excited and grateful to be on a range of panels with some fantastic company. I have a reading of my own on Sunday. I hope you can join me for my convention solo reading debut.

Wed 14:00 – 15:00, Breaking into Comics (Panel), A01+6 (RSCC)

So, you want to be a comic writer or artist? Are you prepared enough to enter the field? Is reading 50+ comics per week enough prep?

Wed 15:00 – 16:00, Finding Your Home in the Art World (Panel), A02 (RSCC)

Thu 14:00 – 15:00, What to Do in a Disaster (Panel), A04 (RSCC)
