How Traveling Affects Our Writing 10:30 am Columbus 1
Traveling is meant to take you some place different, as is reading a good book, so it's no surprise that the writers on this panel are also travelers whose experiences on the road and abroad not only have led to travel writing stints, but also enhanced their fiction.

Mike Resnick - Editor Guest of Honor (Read his PICK SIX!), Timons Esaias*, Heidi Ruby Miller*, Jason Jack Miller*

How Do You Research Things That Don’t Exist? 2:30 pm Dayton
A look at how authors research things like elves, fairies, demons, wizards and gods to name a few.
