In less than a month, Paul Weimer, Mike Underwood, and Shaun Duke will be at CONvergence in Minneapolis, the City of Flower and Sawdust, the City of Lakes, the Mini Apple, one half of the Twin Cities. Woo!
A few years ago, we conducted over a dozen interviews and discussions at CONvergence using a handy portable recorder and a partially reconstituted talking gerbil. We’d like to do something similar again in 2016! That’s where you come in.
If you’re a fan, a creator (author, comic artist, whatever), or something else entirely, we’d like to talk to you! And that means you have to send us an email (skiffyandfanty[at]gmail[dot]com) with the subject line “CONvergence Podcast.” Here’s what we’re planning to record:
Interviews with Fans
One of Shaun’s interests is talking to sf/f fans about their fan-ness. How did you become a fan? What are your earliest fannish memories? What books or movies affected your life? If you’re a fan and would like to be interviewed, let us know!
Interviews with Creators (Writers, Artists, Filmmakers, Podcasters)
This would seem to be the most obvious of the three. If you’re a creator of some kind, we’d like to talk to you about your creative endeavors. We’ve interviewed authors, comic artists, filmmakers, and other podcasters. There are all sorts of categories of creators out there, so if you make something, whether it’s a book or costumes, we’d love to chat about you and your work!
Discussions on Various SF/F Topics w/ Anyone
Got an sf/f topic you’d like to talk about? A movie you want to discuss? Let us know! We’re interested in setting up a few discussion sessions with creators and fans. Send us your suggestions, too!
See you at CONvergence!
