This weekend is Philcon, another science fiction convention (and my last of the calendar year), in Cherry Hill, New Jersey.

As always, I’ll be at the Fantastic Books table in the dealers’ room for most of the weekend (scheduled to be open 4-7pm on Friday, 10am-6pm on Saturday, and 10am-3pm on Sunday).

I’ve also got two special events on my schedule (both on Saturday). At 5pm, there will be a special reading from the forthcoming Fantastic Books anthology Across the Universe, in Executive Suite 623. And then, at 9pm, we’ll be launching The Double Bounty by Brian Koscienski and Chris Pisano, in Executive Suite 823. Please make sure that, if you’re at Philcon, you join us for both.

Beyond those, there will be the usual flock of panels. Mine look to be:

Friday at 8pm in Plaza III: “Will My Publisher Expect Me To Go On Tour?” with Danielle Ackley-McPhail, Marc Histand, Anna Kashina, Jon McGoran, and David Walton.

Saturday at 1pm in Plaza III: “How to Establish Your Own Imprint” with Maria Arnt, Jeffrey A. Carver, Marc Histand, and Ann Stolinsky.

Saturday at 3pm in Plaza IV: “Building Your Own Anthology” with Keith R.A. DeCandido, Gordon Linzner, Darrell Schweitzer, and Jim Stratton.

Hope to see lots of you there!
