ConCarolinas this weekend!

Yay! It's time again for Con-Carolinas!!  Which this year is also DeepSouthCon and is being held at the Hilton University Place in Charlotte!  This is my local con that I've had a total blast going to the past few years and I'm super excited that this time I'm going to be on some of the panels!  Wahoo!  Here's my schedule:

Friday at 6:00 pm:  Book Launch!: Writer guests who have published in the past year share their newest creations.

Friday at 8:00 pmScary Monsters and Super Freaks: Creating monsters in your writing - and where have all the scary monsters gone?

Saturday at 2:00 pmThe Harry Effect: What Harry Potter did for young adult literature - and why so many distiguished authors are trying their hand at YA literature.

Saturday at 8:00 pmI Like the Dark: The appeal of dark fantasy and how to write it.

Sunday at 4:00 pmDon`t Be a Noob!: Common mistakes beginners make when starting in the writing business.

I'll also be around before and after my panels selling books if anyone is interested!  Of course, one of the highlights of ConCarolinas each year is the zombie walk (there's a zombie discussion on Saturday at 4 and the walk is at 6).

As you can see from the pictures, I've been a very avid participant in all the zombie treats this con has to offer :)

Here's more information about registration and whatnot.  I've met some really amazing authors by attending this con and am so excited to be hanging out with them all again soon!  I hope to see y'all there!

Carrie,
I enjoyed meeting you at ConCarolinas. I didn't get a chance to pick up one of your books, but I will soon. Thanks for your impromptu "Gimme a Break" session, too!
