BayCon this year will be held this Memorial Day weekend, May 27 - 30, at the San Mateo Marriott. The guest of honor is David Gerrold. I hope to see many of you there.
My schedule is:
---------------------
Writing Collaborations: Are Two (or more) Heads Better Than One?
Saturday 10:00 - 11:30, Connect 1 (San Mateo Marriott)
Maya Kaathryn Bohnhoff (M), Chaz Brenchley, Mark Gelineau, Joe King, Karen Brenchley, Sandra Saidak
Our pros discuss the ins and outs of writing as part of a team.
Note that Chaz and I are both on this one, possibly because we've published stories together. Note that he hates collaboration, yet he keeps agreeing to it and sometimes even suggesting it.
---------------------
Women In Science and Engineering
Saturday 11:30 - 13:00, Engage (San Mateo Marriott)
Karen Brenchley (M), Eva Carrender, Amy Phillips, Heidi Stauffer, Dr. Ellen Coatney
Women in STEM fields discuss the challenges and opportunities in their career paths.
I'm moderating this one, and I'm looking forward to it. Everyone on the panel works in a different type of science or engineering role.
---------------------
Fight Choreography
Cody Parcell (M), Jeremy Tavan, Karen Brenchley
Sunday 10:00 - 11:30, The Courtyard (San Mateo Marriott)
Exploring real world body mechanics, physics, and martial arts as they apply to creating fight scenes that are both accurate and visually appealing.
I can't actually do much aikido anymore, but I do know a lot about body mechanics and martial arts. I hope we spend some time talking about written fight scenes as opposed to just stage combat, but it should be an interesting panel.
