Three Talks in Melbourne, Australia

Monday, November 23rd, 2009

Hey, I’m in Melbourne, Australia, for a couple of days.

I’m giving two talks at the Burwood campus of Deakin University in Melbourne, Australia, this week. Both the Deakin talks are in the “Moot Court” room on the Burwood campus of Deakin University, Building C, Level 3. Here’s a map.

* Tuesday, Nov 24, 4 to 5 p.m., “My Life as a Writer”. We videoed this, and I hope to podcast it.

* Thursday, Nov 26, 1 to 2 p.m., “Life is a Gnarly Computation”. Here’s a link to a PDF file of the slides for the talk.

And I’m giving a talk on with Leon Marvell at the “Re:Live” conference at the University of Melbourne. The talk is at the Seminar Room in the Federation Hall of the Faculty of VCA and Music, University of Melbourne, 234 St Kilda Road. More info at the conference page.

* Friday, Nov 27, 3:30 to 5:00 p.m., “The Lifebox Soul Replicator”

Come hear me if you can!

Clarion West. Reading in Seattle.

Thursday, July 23rd, 2009

I’m heading off to be the instructor for the final week of the Clarion West science-fiction writing workshop in Seattle.

To get ready, I reworked and expanded the “Writer’s Toolkit” document that I use when I talk about writing.

I’ll be doing a reading at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, July 28, 2009, at the University of Washington Book Store in Seattle. More info here.
