truepennyPhantom Maids and Ghostly Ladies
Description: Women have been writing, selling and starring in ghost stories for centuries. Authors from Sarah Orne Jewett to Shirley Jackson to Dorothy Allison have written women into a prominent place in the ghost story tradition. By turns tragic, terrifying and comic, ghost stories provide timeless entertainment. Let's talk about why they endure and what they have to offer. Are there lessons to be learned from the ghost stories of the past? What lies in the future for a good spectral read?
Location: Conference 4
Schedule: Fri 9:00 - 10:15PM
Panelists: M: Catherine Lundoff, Valerie L Guyant, Sarah Monette, Kristine Smith
The Politics of Posterity
Description: A panel/roundtable discussion with authors, librarians, archivists, and scholars about how the SF/F canon is established, with focus on how the archiving of literary papers affects canon formation. Is archiving feminist authors, authors of color, or authors that typically write in feminized genres (e.g. fantasy, women's fiction, fanfic) a political act? When so many modern archives are mostly electronic, how can we ensure that a broad variety of works survives?
Location: Conference 5
Schedule: Sun 2:30 - 3:45PM
Panelists: M: Lynne M. Thomas, Brad Lyau, Sarah Monette
The SignOut
Location: Capitol/Wisconsin
Schedule: Mon 11:30AM - 12:45PM
Also, if you're going to be at WisCon, and you'd like to meet for drinks, food, bookstore trawling, etc., please let me know! (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
