We've made many updates to the schedule below - at this time, workshop schedules are set firmly, and panel/discussion schedules are nearly completed. We are in the process of confirming and adding fan-led events to the schedule below, and over the coming days will be adding in details regarding Magic Box, Hospitality, and more special events to the schedule, so check back often. It is inevitable that minor changes may occur after the schedule goes to print, but rest assured that you will receive change notices at the convention should such changes become necessary.
If you're making travel plans, the schedule below gives a general idea of the timing of our official programming. We'll open registration on Thursday afternoon or evening and have an informal welcome party in the con suite Thursday night. We'll have a dead dog party in the con suite Sunday night, so there'll be plenty to do if you stick around Sunday.
Online workshop registration is now closed. The following three workshops are currently full (we will maintain a wait list): Americana, Inner Lives I and II, and Writers' Salon. All other workshops will have slots available for signup at the convention.
