From the Archive – ConDFW 2009

Posted by reudaly on October 1, 2010 in Archive, Writing |

If you are in the Dallas/Fort Worth area and have nothing to do this weekend (and if I’d been on the ball and written this much earlier, you’d have had warning) ConDFW is going on in North Dallas at the Crown Plaza Suites Dallas-Park Center.

This is a new hotel for ConDFW, and it should be an exciting weekend. Writer Guests of Honor are David Weber, who needs no definition or introduction, and Jim Butcher – of the Dresden Files and the Alera fantasy series.

In an unusual move, ConDFW’s Artist Guest of Honor is actually an animation studio, Janimation. I’m not sure how that’s going to work, but personally looking forward to meeting them.

The other guests/panelists at ConDFW are the “usual suspects” for the area – but Dallas/Fort Worth area boasts a HUGE number of “local” major talent: Rachel Caine (Morganville Vampires and Weather Wardens), PN Elrod, Carole Nelson Douglas (for the mystery fans), just to name a VERY, VERY few. This is a full-range literary and artistic convention.

For the aspiring writer, this is a great place to network with some small press editors and publishers, like YardDogPress. With writers, artists, and to buy books you might never buy otherwise.

This is a perfect opportunity to support the industry and keep science fiction and fandom alive. Hope to see you there.
