Minicon Schedule

[pegkerr]

I will be at minicon41. My panels are as follows:

Depression and Creativity (Saturday 3:00 - 4:15 p.m.)
Young Adult Novels for Adults (Fiona is going to be on this one, too) (Saturday 7:00-8:15 p.m.)
Jane Austen's Influence on Fantasy (Sunday 11:30 a.m. - 12:45 p.m.)

I will not be doing a reading, as I haven't written anything new in about a year and if you want a book signed, grab me any time, but I figured that just about anyone who wanted anything signed has had it done by now, so I didn't sign up for a signing time.

What YA novels are you discussing?

(I'm working on a list for the county library website on just this topic; I've submitted 25 titles but I can always add more.)

I don't feel very knowledgeable about the current crop of YA novels--when they asked me to be on the panel, I suggested Fiona as someone who would probably know more than me. Once they accepted her, I just came along for the ride. The moderator is extremely knowledgeable--she's a children's/YA librarian--so I am hoping to riff off of her comments if she recommends any books I recognize.
