Au Contraire is fast approaching
Au Contraire is a SF convention being held this year in Wellington on August 27, 28, 29 and I’m excited to be going. this will be my third con. First was 2004 in Phoenix AZ, where I meet my magazine co-workers and friends and a host of horror icons and horror writers. It was a blast. The second was a mini-con held by Phoenix (10 days ago).
On Saturday I will be sharing a table with Tim Jones and Pat Whitaker in the public bar area. I shall be signing and inscribing copies of The Game. Not sure if I will sign in a pen or use my blood. The blood idea is starting to catch on in my mind. A horror novel signed in blood. How neat! Wonder if that’s been done before.
Please visit Tim Jones’ post for some info on Au Contraire. And if you’re a kiwi and a member of Masters of Horror (a spec-fic site), a vote on the night wouldn’t go astray.
