Special Events
Open Filk (Friday, 8-midnight)
Sing of the glories of Aragorn, or the evils of C'thulhu. Listeners are also welcome, but filk is best experienced through participation.
The Great Duct-Tape War (Saturday, 10-1:30)
Make your own boffing weapon, be it a mace, a sword, or a Swiss-Army Polearm, and slay your
enemies with it! Warmups and weapon construction begin in front of Converse at 10, and full-scale battle begins at noon. Bring your own weapons and materials if you want to,
but we'll have plenty to share. Several experienced weapons-smiths will
be there to help you if you're new to the trade.
SF/F Writing 101 (Saturday, 3-5)
Perhaps our most popular panel from last year. This time around, it's a full two hours of advice from the pros.
Storytelling with Josepha (Saturday, 8:30-10:30)
Gather round and listen to tales of ages past. This storytime is not for children. Trust us on that.
How to Survive a Zombie Attack (Sunday, 2-3)
Practical and theoretical advice in Powerpoint form.
