It’s only 16 days until the start of Readercon<\/a>, which I’ve been attending since 1987. I love it so much I’ve only missed one. <\/p>\n

Readercon has bounced around Massachusetts over the decades, and this year it’s in Quincy for the third time, where it will run from July 12-16.<\/p>\n

Here’s the programming on which you’ll be able to find me—<\/p>\n

Thursday, July 12, 8:00 p.m., Salon 5
\nWriters Who Edit, Editors Who Write<\/strong>
\nThose who edit as a full-time job rarely do much writing on the side, but many full-time writers bolster their incomes through editing. Why does this equation seem to function better in one direction than the other? How do writers who edit avoid the pitfalls experienced by editors who write? What can be done to address an ever-widening taste gap, and the tendency to self-edit into the ground?
\nwith Julia Rios, Mike Allen, Sabrina Vourvoulias, Mimi Mondal, John Edward Lawson<\/em><\/p>\n

Thursday, July 12, 9:30 p.m., Salon B
\nReading<\/strong>
\nI’ll be reading “The Stranded Time Traveler Embraces the Inevitable,” which will be published later this year in the anthology If This Goes On<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Friday, July 13, 2:00 p.m., Salon C
\nIn Memoriam: Gardner Dozois<\/strong>
\nGardner Dozois (1947\u20132018) was a towering figure in the field. He won 15 Hugo Awards for his editorial work, which included 20 years as editor of Asimov’s and 40 years of editing annual surveys of SF and fantasy as well as other anthologies. Less celebrated, but also excellent, were his short fiction and novels. We were honored to make him a guest of honor at Readercon 22. Join us in celebrating his life and work.
\nwith Henry Wessells, Shawna McCarthy, Sheila Williams, Michael Swanwick, Gregory Feeley<\/p>\n

Saturday, July 14, 10:00 a.m., Seven Masts
\nKaffeeklatsch<\/strong>
\nwith Victoria Janssen<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
