Well, this is freakin’ cool! Dave White, one of the local broadcasting DJs here at CBC North, asked if he could interview Karen Joy Fowler about this write-a-thon–the VERY ONE YOU ARE DOING. Yep! Team Bears Discover Fire gets a shout out even!
And two of our writers, besides myself, are from Whitehorse, and this gave it its local component–but the talk with Karen is about the importance of Clarion, this write-a-thon, and your getting done with what you are doing!
If you’ve got a moment, here’s the full clip.

She says I’m supposed to nag you more…. I need to nag you!
How are things going? How are you feeling? What are you doing? And most importantly, are you having fun yet?

I feel nagged! If it helps, I’ll tell Karen that you followed up, so she doesn’t nag you some more.
Wow, very cool PR!

Here’s Dave White’s interview with Karen Fowler and I about our team of writers helping raise money for the very well known Clarion Science Fiction and Fantasy Workshop. They’re creating scholarships–so us alumni, we’re helping out! And new writers as well!
