AWP
Hey, hey, hey! I will be doing a couple of things at AWP this year. I thought putting it all here in this post would help ME because I am having a hard time remembering what day I’m doing what thing. But maybe also you’re coming and want to hang and/or heckle?
THURSDAY
10:30 am, I’m signing copies of my novella, If You’re Not Yet Like Me, at the always festive Nouvella table (#1827).
FRIDAY
10:00-10:15 am, I’ll be reading a book by a writer of color who has influenced me at the Housequake Booth (#1711). Stop by to see what I’ll be reading! And then you should tweet about it with the hashtag #litincolor.
1:30-2:24 pm, I’m on a panel (Main Auditorium, Level 1). It’s called “I Can Change, I Can Change: Transformation on the Page“ and it’s with Kima Jones , Benjamin Percy, Samantha Dunn, and Chris L. Terry. Here’s the write up: "I can almost always tell immediately that what I’m looking at is a moment of transition in someone’s life." The moment that Russell Banks is describing can be vital to a story. Some would argue that it's the reason readers turn the page. This panel will explore the question: how does a writer discover that moment of transition? From James Joyce's epiphany, to the questions of character desire and conflict, how did these authors find that illuminated moment of change? “
Wednesday night I am going to be eating room service in my pajamas while watching HGTV. Hell yes.
