On Friday this week, I’ll be helping at the GLAWS booth at the Writers Digest Convention being held at the Loew’s in Hollywood. It will be interesting to observe the goings-on.
On Saturday, in the afternoon the GLAWS Special Speaker Event (at the Palms-Rancho Park Library) will feature a panel on “Writers of Color” – I’m really looking forward to it! Information on GLAWS events can be found HERE. (The first time I heard Gary Phillips speak, the very literary description “He had a face like granite and a voice like gravel” popped into my head. But he was interesting to listen to for the content of what he had to say as well!)
Sunday, I wrap up a freelance editing job by meeting with the author. I certainly worked to give him my due diligence. But I will admit that after doing a few of these editing jobs now, I really rather would be writing. Editing is not my “for joy” job, it seems.
I’m also being optimistic in making plans to write a paper for next summer’s Mythcon – which will be held in East Lansing, Michigan. The prospect of visiting again the state of my birth is singing a siren song to me. So, I’m going to submit my paper proposal this weekend.
And then there’s the usual of writing on various projects. Scribbling away here at ScribblerWorks.
