Let me tell you about The Capricon Project. As I noted on this blog Feb. 1, I'm planning to attend Capricon 40 this week (God and the weather willing). While I'm there, my publishing company and I hope to join forces (and blogs) to cover the event.
As you may know, I'm the Weirdness Manager for Weird Sisters Publishing LLC (I'm half of the partnership. The other half is my sister, G. S. Norwood). As Weirdness Manager, I also write most of our posts for The Weird Blog, and I'm in charge of preparing and posting all of them. But I can only split "me" into so many fragments.
I like to highlight things I've seen, people I've met, and panels I've attended or helped present. We plan to cross-post the short profiles, photos, and other items I generate, to both blogs and some of our social media.
I also have two display panels reserved at the Art Show. I'll have a few copies of What's Bred in the Bone with me, available for sale at the con (reduced at-con price is $13, or almost $2 off the regular trade paperback price).
I also plan to attend other panels and readings, and tour the Dealers' Room. If they agree, I'll take pictures or short videos of dealers whose work I can recommend, and post them on my social media (Artdog Studio is on Facebook and Pinterest. Jan S. Gephardt-Author is on Facebook and Twitter, and Weird Sisters Publishing is on Facebook), as well as collect them for possible blog posts.
I hope you'll follow my posts, and see how well The Capricon Project turns out!

What is The Capricon Project?
Artdog Adventures and The Weird Blog will join forces for The Capricon Project. I propose to take lots of photos and do a lot of things at the convention (followers of Artdog Adventures are familiar with my process).I like to highlight things I've seen, people I've met, and panels I've attended or helped present. We plan to cross-post the short profiles, photos, and other items I generate, to both blogs and some of our social media.
What's the plan?
I have a pretty ambitious schedule for Capricon 40. I'm scheduled for eight programming events, including five panel discussions (three of which I moderate), an autograph session, a reading, and the Indie Author Speed-Dating event. |
