I have an update to my Eurocon schedule (meaning that they have given me another panel). The full schedule is below:

Friday August 22nd, 9:00pm – BOYCOTT!
Does boycotting a creator’s work or an event actually make an impact or just give them more publicity? Is there any point in boycotting dead creators?

Saturday August 23rd, 11:00am – Mocking the Monoglots: Untranslated Hidden Gems
While technology advances the universal translator is still dodgy at best, which means that so many stories are unavailable to those who only know one or two languages. The panel aims to discuss the best of hidden, single language stories and why you should definitely fire up DuoLingo to learn to read them.

Saturday August 23rd, 4:00pm – Guest of Honour Interview – Ylva Spångberg
Ylva Spångberg interviewed by me.

Sunday August 24th, 10:00am – “She wrote it, but…” – Invisible Women Creators
Women have been profoundly important and influential creators since the very foundation of Speculative Fiction, so why are they often left out of the academic texts, the awards lists and the reprint market? And what do the panel and the audience do to alter this trend?

Sunday August 24th, 11:00am – The Science Fiction from Beyond Seas and Mountains
Science Fiction is a many splendoured and the stories vary hugely from country to country. Our panellists will talk about SF from all across Asia and Latin America and introduce you to some new & wonderful tales.

I note that I had the pleasure of chatting to Ylva Spångberg at Worldcon and I think I can promise the attendees a fascinating conversation.
