Things to Do If You're Not Reading Harry Potter

The Speculative Fiction Fair, a monthly Manhattan gathering of fantasy and science fiction fans, closes out its season Sunday with a reading by Hugo-winning author John Grant. They'll also be raffling off (for free!) what appears to be a master class in SF writing with Michael Blumlein. That'll be at the Interborough Repetory Theater in Greenwich Village. Later that evening, at KGB, my friends Robin Epstein and Renée Kaplan will be reading from Shaking Her Assets; I'm hoping I can get enough writing done this weekend to be able to see that!
