Upcoming Radio Silence and Con Schedule

I'm about to fly to Texas for a week, and I'm not taking the laptop, so posting will be light and scattered. In the meantime, here's my semi-firm schedule for Windycon, happening the weekend after my return:

Saturday, 1:00 - 2:00 p.m.: Under the Moons of Mars
100 Years ago, Edgar Rice Burroughs Published the story “Under the Moons of Mars,” which was later known as Princess of Mars, and, as of 2012, simply John Carter. How well does this story really stand up to being a century old? How has it been treated over the last hundred years? And is John Carter a worthy adaptation of it?
B. Lyn-Waitsman, M. Resnick, P. Eisenstein, C. Gerrib (M), B. Sutton

Saturday, 5:00 - 6:00 p.m.: Wordz! The Literature of Zombies
Max Brooks penned World War Z which has been described as “much better book than its premise would suggest” and John Joseph Adams has collected the literature of zombies in The Living Dead. How much life is there in zombies as a central point in story telling?
C. Gerrib, J. Lowder, J. Bonansinga (M)

Sunday, 9:00 AM - 12:00 noon: Writer's Workshop
Only open to writers who submitted a manuscript for critique.

Sunday, 1:00 - 2:00 p.m.: The Ever Changing Nature Of The Zombie
It used to be magic that we feared. Now it’s science. How and why has the nature of the monster been altered during the past century?
C. Gerrib, B. Harper-Murray, T. Clemmons (M)
