Ack! Orycon is this weekend and I’m on several panels and I’ve forgotten to post about them! The con is virtual and free, so you just need sign up to get the Zoom info. My panels:

Self-Publishing 101 Fri Nov 13 1:00pm – 1:50pm
It looks so easy! Just write a book, find a friendly editor, and then publish! Right? Maybe not! Talk to our experienced writers, editors, and publishers about the art of self-publishing. Find out what you need to know to make it successful for you.
April Aasheim, Leah Cutter, Dayle A. Dermatis, Zoom Monitor – Phoenix Turley

Tropes, Memes, and literary devices Sat Nov 14 12:00pm – 12:50pm
Why do we use them? Lazy writing, or a good start to something better? Let’s discuss how tropes, memes and literary devices hurt us, or help us!
A. Lee Martinez, Dayle A. Dermatis, Jackson Dean Chase, USA TODAY bestselling author, Sanan Kolva, Zoom Monitor – Robert Gallup

Sex and the modern market Sat Nov 14 8:00pm – 8:50pm
Your characters don’t just sit around and talk or stare into each other’s eyes. They get down and dirty. How do you sell the stuff? How do you stay out of the Amazon Adult jungle? There is so much bad stuff out there, how do you get noticed? What about audio? Come listen to us talk about the naughty bits. 18 and over only, please.
Dayle A. Dermatis, Matt Haynes, Theresa Reed, Gibbitt Rhys-Jones, Zoom Monitor – Chris Ballowe
