SF in SF Fantasy Author Readings | SOMA

Submitted by the Event Organizer

SF in SF welcome local Sci-Fi and Fantasy authors Nick Mamatas and Lisa Goldstein with readings from their new books.

This is a free event but there is a cheap cash bar in which you can mill around before and after with the writers. Readings are followed by a Q & A moderated by Terry Bisson.

Nick Mamatas: Horror, science fiction and fantasy author and editor

His fiction has been nominated for several awards, including several Bram Stoker Awards, while he has also been recognised for his editoral work through World Fantasy Award and Hugo Award nominations. He is also online, with his own inimitable take on things, at Nihilistic Kid on Live Journal.

… reading from: Starve Better (Apex Books) which is different take on the usual writer-survival guides that promise riches and fame. Witty. Acerbic. Full of truth.

… reading from: The Uncertain Places (Tachyon Publications) which is her new novel about an ages-old family secret breaches the boundaries between reality and magic, revealing the places between them. A long-lost fairy tale straight out of Grimm’s.
