For editor\/columnist\/publishing polymath Rick Klaw, back as a panelist for his 14th year, it\u2019s the presence of highly literary writers like Haldeman, Lansdale, and Crider that makes this event important. “One of the strengths of ArmadilloCon has always been that it\u2019s three fans to every pro, so the pros feel a lot more comfortable,” he said. “You have a chance to sit down and talk about whatever projects you\u2019re working on. As an editor, you can sit down to talk about working with newer writers. As a new writer, you get to meet these people. It enables you to get nearer to the fans.” At the bigger conventions, he adds, “it\u2019s all about promoting whatever you\u2019ve done. This, you\u2019re talking about what you\u2019re going to do.”<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n
