NECON

Next weekend is NECON, my favorite conference of the year. It's a place where writers get together, eat hot dogs, play mini golf, roast someone and have an all-round good time for four days.



Oh, yeah -- panels, too. This year, I'm on this panel:



Saturday, 9:00 a.m. THE NICK KAUFMANN MEMORIAL "WHY DO WE HAVE TO HAVE A PANEL THIS EARLY?" PANEL or THE HORROR STARS OF TOMORROW. Moderated as usual by Nick Kaufmann. This year's topic: Novels vs. Short stories--what's the best place to start? Bev Vincent, L.L. Soares, Lucy Snyder, Gary Frank, Sarah Langan. EVERYBODY WHO ATTENDS THIS PANEL WILL RECEIVE A VALUABLE PRIZE!

  • I may be coming, but, Dude!!! I may just be hitting the road at 9am!! ;D



    Have fun being up that early!
  • Is it just me... or does that sound like one hell of a good time? ;) Enjoy yourself, Bev!
  • It's not just you -- it IS a hell of a good time. My favorite annual vacation for the past four years.
  • IwannagoIwannagoIwannago >:( :P LOL



    Well, be sure to share all the stories with us like you did before... ok, well a few of them. I'm sure the rest of them would be best kept out of print. ;)

    Skipp is a trip -- I've known him for ages and ages. The first time I met him was at a World Horror Convention in NYC. I was rooming with Brian Keene and got to the hotel very shortly before my first panel. I dashed up to the room to change and there was Skipp, in our room, smoking a joint. That was my introduction to him!

  • ....not to go all fanboy, but I envy you in that Bev....you've been with folks I can only admire from afar-with Steve being the "King" amongst them.....I've rubbed elbows with some well known folk, but aside from you, the lovely Robin and Chadbourne-not a soul from the literary worlds....

  • How’d your panel go? Any takeaways you can share with us?  Bits of information  or silly fun?

    It was good to reconnect with this gang, and the panel was fun. A pale imitation of the real thing, but it was nice.
