10-12:00 Workshop by YA author Megan Lynch
Feminism in Sci-Fi and Fantasy Writer’s Workshop: Learn about the evolution of feminism in genre fiction, begin to analyze stories through a feminist lens, and start to weave your perspective on gender issues into stories of your own. Bring a notebook and pen.
1:00 pm Lecture by Connecticut fantasy author Tochi Onyebuchi
“Oriennuitalism”
“The untranslatable & deeply felt pain-joy of sincerely, ceaselessly loving something (Star Wars, Firefly, Blade Runner, so many more) that uses the aesthetics, the language, the empty shell of your culture while tossing aside the ppl (& your humanity alongside it).”
Partners in Speculative Fiction and Parsec are sponsoring this daylong event.
Book signing with both authors immediately afterward.
All events take place in the Studio Room of the Cohon University Center at Carnegie Mellon University, 5000 Forbes Ave. Free parking in the East Campus Garage, next to the University Center.
Please join us for this free, public event.
