I just received the final tweaks to my programming schedule for Denvention 3, the 66th World Science Fiction Convention, which will be held August 6-10 at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver.

If I end up seeming a little morose on the Saturday afternoon of the convention, this list will help explain why—I’ll have just been reminiscing about two of my lost friends. They’re both men worth remembering, and it’s an honor to be asked to take part, but that doesn’t mean that it won’t be sad.

This is where you’ll be able to find me:

Thursday, August 7 at 9:00 a.m.: Strolling With The Stars

Thursday, August 7 at 4:00 p.m.: Reading

Friday, August 8 at 10:00 a.m.: SF Magazine Publication and Market Share

Saturday, August 9 at 10:00 a.m.: A Tribute to Jack Williamson

Saturday, August 9 at 1:00 p.m.: A Tribute to Algis Budrys

I look forward to seeing you all five weeks from tomorrow—assuming I survive both Readercon and the San Diego Comic-Con International, that is!
