dillocon writing workshop

one of the high points of dillocon every year is the writing workshop, where participants get their writing critiqued and disassembled by real live pros. or in my case, an editor who is every bit as cruel and merciless as any other example of the form.

i’m very pleased with the group of students i’m teaching. all four have pieces with a strong and sophisticated core. i’m sure if i make any of them cry it will be a growth experience.

folks have already commented on dillocon’s laidback air. jayme blaschke said: "dillocon has the highest ratio of pros of any con other than world fantasy."

here’s austin writer fred stanton about to be workshopped. and a green mug.

here’s the panel of pros. not pictured: me.

was the only one with the willpower to hold her eyelids open while my flash charged.

the ‘credible creature’ workshop run by julie czerneda is probably very fun. but steve and i ducked out to use the wifi. work work work.
