Preliminary Program Grid for Ian Randal Strock

This is the Preliminary program schedule. Ian Randal Strock may or may not actually be on these items, but probably will. However, due to circumstances beyond our control, modifications to the program can occur throughout the convention.

Friday 5:30 pm: Exquisite Corpse Writing Challenge (Ends at: 6:25 pm) Jackson
Participants:Hildy Silverman, Ian Randal Strock, Mary G. Thompson (M), Richard Sparks, Suzanne Palmer
Watch the creative process in action as our panelists work together to build a story from start to finish!

Friday 7:00 pm: Anthology Builder (Ends at: 7:55 pm) Washington Theater
Participants:Alex Shvartsman, Ian Randal Strock, Keith R.A. DeCandido (M), Neil Clarke
There's an art and a business to building a great anthology. Editors reveal their most important lessons for constructing an anthology that is both readable and marketable. How do editors come up with a theme and properly curate their anthologies? How do the stories get picked? And ultimately, what sells and what does not?

Friday 10:00 pm: The Writer's Toolkit (Ends at: 10:55 pm) Jackson
Participants:Adeena Mignogna (M), Doc Coleman, Ian Randal Strock, Ken Altabef, Morgan Hazelwood
When staring at a blank page, it helps to have a few tips and techniques to fall back on. What are common tools that writers can use to further their craft? What resources serve as helpful refreshers when stuck or seeking inspiration? Are there common prompts or skills to help kick off a good writing session? How might a new writer refine advice that does not quite work for their style into something that properly clicks?

Saturday 10:00 pm: Eye of Argon (Ends at: 10:55 pm) Washington Theater
Participants:Hildy Silverman (M), Ian Randal Strock, Jean Marie Ward, Keith R.A. DeCandido, Michael A Ventrella
As if "The Eye of Argon" isn't hilarious enough, someone decided it needed sequel stories. Join Michael A. Ventrella, Hildy Silverman and Ian Randal Strock as they read stories from their new collection "The Eye of Argon and the Further Adventures of Grignr the Barbarian" and see if you can keep from laughing!
