Readercon Update #1
READERCON, the convention for those who spend more time READING
imaginative fiction that watching or playing it, has a few
announcements:
-we have signed GENE WOLFE, one of the finest imaginative
writers and prose stylists of our time, to be our first
Writer G.O.H. He joins Publisher G.O.H. Mark Ziesing,
whose small press has brought out books by Wolfe, Ian
Watson, A.A. Attanasio, and the late Philip K. Dick.
-we now have a date (June 27--28, 1987[please note year]),
and our location will be the Hotel Bradford in Boston, a
classic hotel in the theatre district which will be
undergoing extensive renovation and restoration in 1986.
-two forms of membership are available: SUPPORTING
memberships (includes Progress Reports, Program Book, and
post-con Final Report) and ATTENDING memberships. For
more details, write to the address below.
-we will be sponsoring awards for Small Press achievement
in this field. Details to follow when we figure them out.
