If you’re going to Worldcon<\/a> later this month, here’s where you can find me:<\/p>\n

SFWA Autographing: Curtis Chen<\/b>
Friday 16:00 – 16:50, SFWA Table (Kansas City Convention Center)<\/i>
I’m volunteering to staff the SFWA<\/a> Table, and I’ll be there starting at 3:00pm along with Ed Lerner<\/a>. Stop by and say hello!<\/p>\n

Reboot! Changing Up Comic Characters<\/b>
Friday 18:00 – 19:00, 2204 (Kansas City Convention Center)<\/i>
“Spider Gwen, Amadeus Cho, Thor, Captain America. We’ve seen a lot of rebooted characters in the the last couple of years with dramatically altered social and cultural backgrounds. The panel discuss how these ‘new’ old characters have changed the Marvel Universe, for better and worse.”
Mr. Robin Wayne Bailey (M), Nina Niskanen, David VonAllmen, Mr. Curtis Chen<\/i><\/p>\n

…and I’ll otherwise be wandering around, probably in search of barbecue and\/or booze.<\/p>\n

If you run into me at the con, ask for a “TEAM KANGAROO” ribbon<\/b> to decorate your badge and show your support for the hapless hero of my debut novel Waypoint Kangaroo<\/i><\/a>!<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Last but not least, my friend, Clarion West classmate, and all-around awesome person Marlee Jane Ward<\/a> is organizing a Karaoke Extravaganza on Thursday night<\/b>. This is a private(ish) event, so if you’re interested, message me on Facebook<\/a> and I’ll invite you!<\/p>\n
