The full panel – The Art and Authenticity of Social Media: Using Online Tools to Grow a Community | Having never before participated in an AWP panel (though I have attended many), I was initiated only from the perspective of an audience member. Knowing that an uninteresting topic coupled with boring presenters may drive the audience to mutiny, I came prepared to be as concise and witty (hopefully) as possible. Overall, I consider my effort a success. Of course, having panelists like Tanya Egan Gibson, Dan Blank, Bethanne Patrick, Christina Katz, and moderator Jane Friedman at the dais made failure near-impossible. I’ve argued before that and author should openly embrace Social Media; the goal of both online social engagement and book-bound literary endeavors are the same: communicating on a human level. While naysayers abound, the consistent monologue about the form (such as this very AWP panel) seems to slowly be cultivating a more accepting and even more eager mindset. Listen to the full panel using the player above. Or you can subscribe to The Velvet Podcast via Feedburner, Podcast Alley, RSS, or iTunes. Here’s the official description: The Art and Authenticity of Social Media: Using Online Tools to Grow a Community. (Jane Friedman, Tanya Egan Gibson, Dan Blank, Bethanne Patrick, Christina Katz, Caleb J. Ross) Social media is easy to disparage as meaningless socializing, undignified shilling, or time better spent writing. Yet sharing information online and having conversations with readers is critical to spreading the word about what you (or your organization) does. Online community building can help develop a long-term readership, plus open up new opportunities. | 2/6/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

(Question and Answer) Panel Recap – F219 A Rattle Reading: Cowboy & Western Poetry | Participants in the panel were, Jeff Streeby, JV Brummels, Donald Williams, Thea Gavin, David Romtvelt, and Joshua Dolezal. Cowboy poetry is a fantastic and complex genre. Poems of work, poems of oral history, poems of landscape. I must admit, as someone who comes from Philadelphia and Vermont; I am totally not a cowboy. There is still so much in the genre I find to identify with. I felt like I’d done enough ‘work’ panels at this conference, and thus I’d treat myself, and this panel was indeed a treat. I will let the words of the authors speak for themselves. The panel consisted of six readers and a Q&A session. Also, I must mention here, that both cowboypoetry.com and cowboysongs.com were recommended by the panel. | 4/10/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

An interview with Brian Evenson in prep for his panel S115. Crime, Horror, Sci‐Fi, and Fantasy… Seriously. | I was lucky to recently have a Skype chat with Brian Evenson begin_of_the_skype_highlighting end_of_the_skype_highlighting, who book after book, continues to be one of the most impressive writers out there. I've long been a fan for a very long time, and in the world of authors, Evenson is about as close to celebrity as I'm comfortable admitting is out there. Here we discuss topics relating to his panel, extract below: S115. Crime, Horror, Sci‐Fi, and Fantasy... Seriously. (Anthony Smith, Brian Evenson, Stephen Graham Jones, Tod Goldberg, Mark Smith, Seth Harwood) Six writers of genre fiction who also teach and/or have graduated from university creative writing programs discuss how they approach genre fiction as a serious literary pursuit rather than as a lesser form of fiction. In addition, they discuss attitudes towards genre fiction in the university and how those attitudes have changed over the years. I want to personally thank Mr. Brian Evenson for taking time out of his day to chat with me. He has made this fanboy quite happy. Be sure to visit his website for details about this amazing author. | 4/5/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
