Have you signed up for any CONvergence 2026 panels yet? Which ones do you hope make it on this year's schedule?
Yay! I am on a panel at CONvergence after all! Many thanks to the scheduling staff who realized my panel signups didn't get sent in and let me sign up to a panel that wasn't full yet, that happened to be one that I really super wanted to be on!
I will be on the Eugenics in Science Fiction panel Thursday evening, and then go right from there to my book launch room party! My science fiction book that is very much about eugenics and it's expression in modern US life, told via superheroes!
I hope to see some of you there!
(EDIT: looks like it may be video recorded so if I get a chance I will share that with y'all)
