Biology and Manners: the worlds of Lois McMaster Bujold

I'm organizing a conference on Lois McMaster Bujold next August! More information here.

Please pass this on to anyone who you think might be interested!

This sounds really interesting - I love Bujold. Does one have to be very academic for it?

When will you have more info? Bujold is one of my favourite writers. I'm certainly thinking of attending, though it's going to be a busy time as Milford starts on the following Saturday - specifically timed to follow Worldcon for writers coming across the pond. http://www.milfordSF.co.uk

Why did I read that heading as Biology and Manure?

Hmmm... Thanks for pointing this out. I've emailed my sister (greerwatson on LJ) who regularly goes to give academic papers at the Sci-Fi Conference in Florida each March and who is thr one who introduced me to Bujold. She could stay with me and go to the conference!

Oooh, shiny!

Does the conference also admit non-academics as audience members? I don't think I could give a talk, but I would maybe like to attend as a listener.

Also, are you planning to be at Worldcon 2014 (despite your current WIP :P)? Perhaps I could make up for missing out on EasterCon 2012 there...
