Bristol This Week

I won’t be online much this week because I’ll be rather busy in Bristol.

Tomorrow (Tuesday) I will be at the Watershed to meet some Egyptian writers — most importantly Ahmed Khaled Towfik who is one of Egypt’s leading science fiction and fantasy writers. I’ll be doing an interview with him.

On Thursday I am moderating a panel at the Festival of Literature on writing speculative literature. The panelists will be Juliet E. McKenna, Gareth L. Powell and Jo Hall.

On Friday we have a couple of signings at Forbidden Planet, featuring Juliet E.McKenna, Justina Robson, Paul Cornell, Gareth L. Powell and Richard Morgan. Then in the evening I’m on a Festival of Literature panel with Justina Robson and Tim Maughan talking about politics in science fiction.

Finally, on Saturday, we have BristolCon.

Naturally I would love to see some of you at one or all of these events.
