Alt Fiction 2011
It’s already been mentioned on their site that I’ll be attending Alt Ficti
on in Derby, but as it’s a 2-day event, I thought I’d better clarify; I’ll be there on Saturday 25th June only, rather than for both days…unless anything changes over the next month.
I’ve had my provisional timetable, which involves me in three panels — although panels isn’t quite the word. I’ll be participating in a podcast at noon; ‘Breaking into Writing is the subject, and I’ll be one of four writers involved.
From 5 to 6 I’ll be reading in the Participation Space (I have a vague memory that that’s the middle of a big open plan area…).
And earlier, from 3 to 4 I’ll be involved in running a workshop, which is going to be erm, interesting….I’m not sure how exactly this is going to work; there’s no set format, so I may end up with people bringing things they’ve already written. If that’s the case, I’m happy to read previously written pieces. Or I may end up just fielding questions.
So let’s have a straw poll; if you were going to a workshop for one hour, what would you prefer to do? Talk theory, or workshop written pieces? Is there a 3rd option, I haven’t thought of?
Feel free to feed back ideas to me…
