Upcoming: Life, The Universe, and Everything and Sibyl’s Scriptorium

Posted by Rampant Coyote on February 4, 2016

I’m a finalist for Sibyl’s Scriptorium’s annual DragonComet writing competition. The awards will be presented at this year’s Life, The Universe, and Everything Symposium held in Provo, Utah next week (February 11-13). Regardless of how I place, my story (“Best Wishes”) will be published in the anthology. So… exciting times! I will be at the event on Thursday evening, and I’ll be at the Xchyler publishing table(s) part of the time signing books, and I’ll be participating in the “Mass Book Signing” event signing… pretty much anything you want me to sign, including copies of this new anthology.

I don’t know why you’d want me to sign anything… it’ll probably drop the resell value… but hey, I’m happy to do it. Unless it’s a legal document. I’m not gonna fall for that one again… ๐Ÿ˜‰

While Utah now has Comic Con and some similar conventions, LTUE is a different sort of experience. At least it was the last time I went, and so I’ve been told recently. It’s more of an academic symposium, so the events and activities are a bit more focused on discussion, academic presentations, networking, and professional development than the typical “fan” oriented experiences like Comic Con. But that’s not to say it doesn’t have its share of fun and games – there’s plenty, from Magic the Gathering tournaments to Cosplay “how to” panels to filking. You can check out the schedule here.

And there’ll be lots and lots of authors, including Kevin J. Anderson, Shannon Hale, Brandon Sanderson, David Farland, Mary Robinette Kowal, Howard Taylor, Dan Wells,ย Larry Correia, D J Butler, Rebecca Moesta, Michaelbrent Collings, and… hey, Jay and Julie Barnson! ๐Ÿ™‚ And scads more.

We’re gonna have a good time! If you can make it, be sure and catch me and say hi!
