EFNW Schedule! · 7:54pm May 15th, 2018
Hey folks! I'm totally freaking out here with excitement and general panic. It's gonna be a super-busy weekend! I'm flying in Thursday morning and not leaving until Monday evening! Time for maximum convention fun, since this will likely be my only MLP con of the year! And I'm super involved with the Writing Track this year, because of the amazing Heartshine.
(You writers owe Heartshine SO MUCH)
So, here's all the panels I'll be on! You can also find me by a gorgeous new badge that Overlord Neon made for me or... well, probably a lot of Sunset shirts. Heh. ^^;
FRIDAY

Panelists: Novel Idea, The Albinocorn, Dr. Crab
Sidenote: I got the chance to help run this panel with Mr. Pie last year, and I found it incredibly rewarding--especially since all of you found it so rewarding! I have been writing for a very, very long time and I've learned some tips and tricks. I'm super eager to get to share these with you (and pick up some of my own!)

Sidenote: For some crazy reason, I keep being put in as the Third Member of the "Sunset Trinity" with Albi and Oroboro! Well, if I'm going to pretend to buy into that (I don't!), you'll be happy to know that this is the very first time Oroboro, Albinocorn and myself have all been together! It's going to be totally AWESOME and I can't wait!!!

Sidenote: ...this is gonna be freaking SWEET. With the caliber of shippers on this panel, this is bound to be awesome... or us all just geeking out about our favorite ships! Either way, it's gonna be EPIC. AND SWEET. EPICSWEET.

Panelists: Novel Idea, Heartshine, Monochromatic
