Penguicon--Steven Harper Piziks

My preliminary schedule for Penguicon is:

Fri 1800 -- Kill Wesley (with Wil Wheaton). I hope Wil has a sense of humor. On the other hand, it'll be in a room full of people who definitely won't be there to see me, so I have the feeling I'll need the sense of humor.

Fri 2100 -- Reading. Fortunately I'm not scheduled opposite anyone more famous than I am.

Sat 1100 -- Gender of SF (with Neil Gaiman). SF has a gender?

Sat 1400 -- Signing (with Wil Wheaton, Neil Gaiman, and numerous other people). This will probably be an exercise in humility. "Hey, guys--I know you want Wil's and Neil's autographs, but I've written some pretty cool books, too. Guys? Um, hello . . . ?"

Sat 1900 -- Humanity 2.0 (with Comrade Sarah). I have the feeling this one's going to turn into our famous nature vs. nurture discussion.

Sun 1000 -- Keeping Up in Science and Tech (with some people I don't know). I'll be in the "I can't" camp.

Sun 1300 -- I Loved It When. . . The =good= stuff about Star Trek. No criticism allowed!

Wil does have a sense of humor, but he's really sick of people thinking of him as Wesley. Check out his blog at wilwheaton.net -- he'll be more impressed if you've read it and can ask him about some of that stuff. Including his adventures in Poker, and his new book.

I have indeed visited his blog, and, if I'm moderator, I'll try to steer the conversation away from Wesley. The Penguicon programming info I received didn't have an "Interview with Wil Wheaton" thing on it anywhere, so maybe we can segue into something like that. I certainly know none of the audience members will be there to see =me=.
