Dublin 2019 -- Worldcon Schedule!

July 27, 2019

I'm so thrilled to be going to Worldcon in a couple weeks!! There is so much that I'm excited for, and my scheduled panels are one of them! 

 

Please note that I am always happy to say hello or to sign books if you see me at the con! I am very good at self-regulating my social intake, so if for example I'm sitting around in a public space and mucking about on my phone then it's pretty safe to assume I'm ok with being interrupted to chat. 

 

I am not sure whether there will be copies of A CONSPIRACY OF TRUTHS in the dealer's room, but I WILL be carrying around some postcards (for both Conspiracy and Choir!) if you want a bit of swag :D I will also have very shiny badge ribbons for Be the Serpent! Come find me! 

 

NOTE: Be sure to check the official program, as there is still the possibility that room or time assignments may have been tweaked. 

 

Introduction to Hopepunk 

15 Aug 2019, Thursday 20:00 - 20:50, Wicklow Hall 2B (CCD)

Alexandra Rowland coined the term ‘hopepunk’ in a Tumblr post in 2017, saying that: ‘…the opposite of Grimdark is Hopepunk’. Our panel will discuss what the term means and how hopepunk intersects with other speculative sub-genres such as grimdark, noblebright, and solarpunk, as well as offering reading recommendation 

 

Be the Serpent podcast - Live Recording

17 Aug 2019, Saturday 11:00 - 11:50, Wicklow Hall 2B (CCD)

Be the Serpent is a speculative fiction, media, and fanfiction analysis podcast hosted by three redheaded fantasy authors. Come join us for a live recording, featuring trope taxonomies, enthusiastic dissection of this episode’s featured stories, dozens of recs, and more dirty jokes than you could shake a snake at. It is, after all, a podcast of extremely deep… literary merit.

Breaking the Glass Slipper podcast - Live Recording

19 Aug 2019, Monday 11:00 - 11:50, Wicklow Hall 2B (CCD)

Since 2016, the ‘Breaking the Glass Slipper’ podcast has championed female voices in speculative fiction. Now into our third season and with a British Fantasy Award nomination under our belt, we’re excited to host a live recording at Dublin 2019. Our subject is inspired by the Emerald Isle itself: the place of islands and island mythology in the human imagination.
