Oh no! So sorry to hear that. I hope everything resolves in the best way possible.
It was a little more organised than that; the organiser asked us let him know what kinds of music we wrote and were interested in writing for the collaboration, and tried to match us up based on that, I believe.
The one I did last year in Vancouver (I believe I shared that demo as well) as a little more random. The organisers for that one basically just tried to make sure every group had an instrument.
Unrelated, but look, I co-wrote another song and now there's a recording of the live performance we did last month! My co-writer, Tristan, and I have totally different processes so it was really interesting to collaborate on this one.
Thank you!
Yeah, a literature/literature studies conference: The Academic Conference on Canadian Science Fiction and Fantasy. At each event they have one author keynote and one academic keynote--Robson gave the keynote and Dellamonica came to hang out.
Why do you think I took the week off?
I was actually presenting a paper at a conference (and had a lovely conversation with Kelly Robson and A.M. Dellamonica) and I’m glad I mentioned that I might not be around, because my 11pm last night arrival home became an 11:30am this morning arrival. With a bonus almost midnight last night arrival in a city I had. Ot planned to be stranded in.
Hey everyone, I'm going to be cross-country for a conference this weekend and will probably be checking the forums late if at all on Sunday, you may want to self-manage for this week
Oops, a bit late checking the forum today. Apologies!
Looks to me like we have @The Kraken's Daughter, @kais, @Mandamon, and @hawkedup. Unless I've missed anyone, that means one more slot if anyone wants it.
We aren't super strict about this, especially since submissions are already staggered by nature with many of us in different time zones. Also, you can critique the following Saturday/Sunday if you prefer, and you'll even still be within that week's submission cycle! There's certainly no expectation that we respond to critiques as soon as they come out.
Yes, I think you're good, @Robinski, because I don't think @shatteredsmooth was actually requesting to submit? So the lineup looks to me like @hawkedup, @Mandamon, @JWerner, @kais, and @Robinski.
Yep, if the slots are free it's anyone's game. Looks like our roster is pretty much the same this week: @shatteredsmooth, @Robinski, @Mandamon and @kais. Anyone for the last slot?
