Odyssey Con GoH switcheroo

So Tobias Buckell was a GoH at Odd Con this year, but has had to bow out, due to impending twins. (I think this is an excellent reason to miss a GoH appearance--not only is it inarguable, it's happy!) However, Patrick Rothfuss has agreed to take his place.

The other GoHs, Emma Bull ([livejournal.com profile] coffeeem) and Georgie Schnobrich (as far as I know, Georgie does not maintain a web presence), are still attending as scheduled.

As I said in my earlier con-going post, I will be at Odd Con. I'm even reprising last year's last-minute improvisation of a novel writing workshop. Bring the first 500-1000 words and find out just how much they tell people about your novel! It worked surprisingly well, although we will not be repeating the FOUR AND A HALF HOUR marathon, thank you very much.

This is going to sound extremely fan-stalkerish, but I'll only be able to attend one day of OddCon this year and I was wondering what day would give me the highest chances of running into you. Any idea what the schedule is going to be like?

The tentative schedule is up here (http://www.oddcon.com/ProgramSchedule031209.html).

I plan to attend--and in fact have items scheduled for--all three days, but my reading is on Saturday at 1:15.
