    THAT STATEMENT CONNECTS the modern Steam Punk Movement, The Jetsons, Metropolis, Disney's Tomorrowland, and the other items that we are celebrating this weekend. Some of those past futures were unpleasant: the Days of Future Past of the X-Men are a shadow of a future that the adult Kate Pryde wanted to avoid when she went back to the present day of the early 1980s. Others set goals and dreams; the original Star Trek gave us the dreams and goals of a bright and shiny future t h a t h a v e i n s p i r e d generations of scientists and engineers. Robert Heinlein took us to the Past through Tomorrow in his Future History series, and Asimov's Foundation built planet-wide cities and we collect these elements of the past for the future. We love the fashion of the Steampunk movement; and every year someone is still asking for their long-promised jet pack. We take the ancient myths of the past and reinterpret them for the present and the future, both proving and making them still relevant today. Science Fiction and Fantasy fandom is both nostalgic and forward-looking, and the whole contradictory nature is in this year's theme. Many of the years that previous generations of writers looked forward to happened years ago; 1984, 1999, 2001, even 2010. The assumptions of those time periods are perhaps out-of-date; technology and society have passed those stories by, but there are elements that still speak to us today. It is said that the Golden Age of Science Fiction is when you are 13.

CONvergence is celebration—the Next Celebration. Twenty-one is a time of the Jedi and the Hufflepuffs, it is the Avengers and the becoming—of growth and change, and, in some sense, of Dothraki, it is the Klingons and the Pokémon Trainers, it is rebirth as we embark on a new phase in our life and become the movie watchers and the musicians, the artists and the who we are meant to be. The past twenty years have been coffee drinkers; it is everyone and everything in the world of geekery. It is community. It is family. glorious, fun-filled and heartwarming, as we have seen all manner of good and evil in the world, and like anyone And as we embark on this next celebration, to boldly go coming of age, we had to leave the nest, spread our wings where no ONE has gone before, we are poised to grow and fly; fly on to the next adventure, because despite our in new directions, to broaden our outreach and bring in long history in one location, CONvergence is not a hotel, it is new communities to make our geeky world more inclusive a people. and more representative of ALL the people who celebrate • CONvergence is that cosplayer working up until 2:00am fandom. the night before with a glue gun in one hand and a So welcome to The Next Celebration.

Huston’s Welcome to the new members of collection opens with a quotation from Philip Larkin’s “High Windows”, which the Wisconsin Fellowship of Poets got me to thinking about differences between that worthy English poet’s work and that have joined since the Summer the worthy work of Huston and Dethlefsen. issue: Certainly I’ve loved Larkin’s verse ever since stumbling across “Days” in Museletter college. I’d note that there are few things more pleasurable than reading aloud Marilyn Annucci Madison “The Whitsun Weddings”, the way it picks up steam, chugs along through images Phyllis Beckman Onalaska from English farms and towns, and finally slows to an end, following the poet’s Ross Boone Twin Lakes train ride across the countryside to end in London. And to be honest, in “Sunny J. Roderick Clark Cambridge Prestatyn” I always choke at the line “She was too good for this world”, even Reva Schlonsky Glendale though “she” is simply an image on a billboard advertising a holiday camp.

  • Wordbrew 2016 Artist Lookbook
    ON NOVEMBER 20, 2016, the 4th annual “Local Author Showcase” was held at Acadia Café in Minneapolis, MN. The event was named Wordbrew (easier to hashtag) but the idea behind the event has not changed in its four-year run. There is an amazing diversity of authors here in the Midwest, working in a multitude of speculative fiction genres, and creating world-class stories. It seems a shame NOT to put a sampling of them on a stage and give them a few moments to make you laugh, cringe, gasp, shriek, or swoon. Therefore, Wordbrew—connecting audiences with their new favorite authors. Speed dating for fiction. Expanding on that concept, I’ve created this “Artist Lookbook” to commemorate the event. Herein, you’ll find profiles of the authors who read at Wordbrew 2016, and the best way for you to connect with them online. So Connect. Friend. Follow. Like. Retweet. Support. And I know you will, because there’s one more thing the Midwest has plenty of - awesome patrons of the arts like you. See you next year...
