In part so I don't have to hunt through my email to find things. Thinking it's an interesting lineup. :-)
And I see we've got an actual "Anonymous" so I'm beside myself with curiosity.

Phantom Maids and Ghostly Ladies     moderator     Fri 9:00 - 10:15PM    
Moderator: Catherine Lundoff. Valerie L Guyant, Sarah Monette, Kristine Smith
Women have been writing, selling and starring in ghost stories for centuries. Authors from Sarah Orne Jewett to Shirley Jackson to Dorothy Allison have written women into a prominent place in the ghost story tradition. By turns tragic, terrifying and comic, ghost stories provide timeless entertainment. Let's talk about why they endure and what they have to offer. Are there lessons to be learned from the ghost stories of the past? What lies in the future for a good spectral read?

Chakrams and Shotguns and Celluloid, Oh My     moderator    
Moderator: Catherine Lundoff. Jamie Feldman, Rachel Kronick, Rhianna Moore, Chris Bifemmefatale
Since the 1990s, the depiction of women warriors on television and movies has morphed and changed from Xena to Doomsday. The women of Stargate, Starbuck and company and Zoe Washburne all have similarities in their portrayal on screen. Are women warriors becoming just another stereotype? Let's talk about the good, the bad and the downright awful.

The Etiquette of Self Promotion     participant    
Moderator: Nayad Monroe. Nayad Monroe, Catherine Lundoff, ANONYMOUS
As writers, we all know that we need to promote our work to see it sell. We network, we blog, we hold contests and we build websites. We also get boring and annoying (at best) when we don't know when to stop. What are some good and socially acceptable techniques for promoting your work? How you figure out when "some" becomes "too much?" What do you think is your most effective vehicle for self–promoting?


Nyarlathotep's Daughters: Many Sides of the Fantastic    Sun 4:00 - 5:15PM     - A Room of One's Own Bookstore
Martha Allard, Melodie Bolt, Catherine Lundoff, S. N. Arly

some people didn't want their names online, but they are in the program book. although, you'd think that someone interested in self promotion would be interested in having their name be known. :)
