Book Publishing Announcements
10/30/2009 // VCON
Hi Jim and all,
> The Fandom events listing I recd this A.M. strikes
me as a good
> service. Is it something new?
Thanks. It's not
really new, but I haven't been doing it consistently.
It's done as a
personal project by me, Keith Lim, and doesn't come from
any particular
organization or group. It's really just the sharing of
my own notes on
events (with some description of the organizers/groups
in question, for
anyone not already familiar with them).
> Is there somewhere
similar where I can announce the publication of my
> new PHANTACEA Mythos
novel when the date nears?
Felicity has already responded, and I agree
that BCSFAzine is a good
place to send the announcement to.
As for my
own Vancouver Fandom events list, I currently have no plans
to expand it
beyond being a listing of *events* (i.e. people meeting
face to face, for
some purpose or activity) in Greater Vancouver. Just
keeping up with events
isn't trivial; there are so many of them.
So announcements of new
publications won't make it in (sorry), but if
it's an event in Greater
Vancouver relating to the publication, like a
book launch party, or a book
signing or reading, those will definitely
count and I'll include them. Best
wishes with your new novel.
Keith
