WE THE UNDERSIGNED, who spent a lot of last year reaching out to ask you to help members of this community of fiction writers in times of need, are pleased to present a totally different type of initiative today. So…
We want to help you promote yourselves at a big fucking convention in a few weeks…
Our sister Inzani D'Arpeggio, FIC’s co-founding Machiavellian altruist, the Godmother of questa cosa nostra, working with our dear friends and indie publishers Dylan Bosworth of Drek Death n Doom and J. Curtis of Tiny Worlds, has booked a table at Readercon 35, July 9-12 in Boston, and wants to send out an open call for writers in our circle to send her promotional material to lay out real pretty and hopefully attract us all some new readers.
Boz and Curtis are going to be sponsoring specific books for a vendor through their shops (and you can ask them directly about that), but if you want to provide free promotional materials, you can reach out to Z and her assistants through this handy Google form:
TAKE ME TO READERCON!
Once we confirm who you are, etc., we’ll email you mailing instructions privately.
(And IF you want to donate to help us make this successful, we want to put Z up in the hotel at the convention for that weekend to stop her from having to drive her sick ass back and forth from Nashua four times to run our table. You can do that via PayPal to @stauffholt or via Venmo to @ZaniDarp, and those of you who do, we will find a special TBD way to thank you for your kindness and consideration.)
Fiction is still culture. We look forward to hearing from all of you.
Love,
Tom, Zani, Fitz, Haly, Nick, Andrew, Dylan, Slater, Brent, Pablo, James, Judith, Vinny, Luke, and Bobbi.
Yeeeeehooooo! LET'S GO!
GODDAMMIT WHY AM I THE FIRST TO COMMENT???
Get. Excited. PEOPLE!
