Yo, here is next year's first agenda. It's one of my favorite conventions and this time, they were kind enough not to schedule it during tax time ;-).
Here are the workshops I'll be captaining at the Romantic Times Convention next year. Both are going to be on Wednesday, the first day of the Con, which just made me realize...umm...I shouldn't be arriving on Weds. morn like I always do. It'd not be good to host a panel with OtherMe still in control of my state of mind. Sigh. Must change hotel registration.
Anyway, they are fun panels, with some top-notch authors helping me out:
1) ROMANTIC SUSPENSE: STRADDLING HEART-POUNDING SUSPENSE AND SIZZLING ROMANCE
How much is too much sex while having dangerous fun? Learn how to balance sexual tension and danger, and how to use dialogue and setting to captivate minds, how to create characters to capture hearts and how to push the envelope to create a bestseller.
Captain: Gennita Low Panelists: Christina Skye, Roxanne St. Claire, agent Lucienne Diver, Joan Johnston
2) ROMANTIC SUSPENSE: CREATING CUTTING-EDGE ROMANTIC SUSPENSE
Romantic suspense is creeping into all genres of fiction, taking it to new heights. Expert panelists will show how to expand your horizons using the newest trends and will share what’s next for the Romantic Suspense genre.
Captain: Gennita Low Panelists: Barry Eisler, Karen Rose, Rebecca York
Of course, I haven't even started thinking about what to say or ask yet, but given that these things are an hour a piece, heck, I'll just have to practice talking with the speed of a bullet train so everyone gets their 10 minutes or so! It's going to be interesting, that's for sure.
Any of you planning to attend? And will you be bringing giant faery wings? ;-)

Well, drat!! There's no way I can go. That would have been interesting.
Boohoo I wanna go! I wanna wear giant faery wings and talk to Eisler about straddling and suspensing.
Is this the one in April? cuz that's around my b-day, I might decide to run away from home.
Great panel, Genn, sounds good! Wish I could be there. :-/
Mo,
RT is a social affair--lots and lots of fun reader-oriented events since it IS a readers convention.

Anon,
That paints a disturbing picture.... ;-)

Lady Zannah,
Yes, it's at the end of April and it'd be cool if you can take a short trip from Atlanta ;-).

Oh, I wish you could too. Can't you make it a family holiday? Lots of readers and authors do, what with Disneyworld nearby.
