Life, The Universe & Everything (all-day)Feb 11
Laura and Tracy Hickman will be appearing at LTUE 2012 with seminars and a book signing.
For thirty years, “Life, the Universe & Everything: The Marion K. ‘Doc’ Smith Symposium on Science Fiction and Fantasy,” has contributed to an enriched BYU education by bringing together the finest local and national authors, editors, scholars, and artists in speculative fiction. It is the only student-run symposium of its type in the U.S., and it proudly maintains a tradition of free admission for current students and excellent content. Begun by scholar and genre visionary Marion “Doc” Smith in the early 1980s, the symposium now honors his memory and continues his legacy. As the title suggests, there is nothing that falls outside the realms of speculation, and creativity in science fiction and fantasy is not limited to the probable, but extends beyond the possible into the impossible, the improbable, and the imaginative.
The purposes of this symposium are first, to provide a venue for scholarly examination of these genres; second, to accommodate and facilitate personal contact between aspiring and professional practitioners in the field; and third, to combine the depth of an academic symposium with the excitement of a science fiction convention. We are passionately devoted to the premise that the thought experiment of speculative fiction, in its breadth, variety, and color, is a rich personal and social laboratory for exploring the spiritual foundations of our temporal world.

Do you know if you are going to be on one of the autograph sessions this year at Dragon*Con? I did not see you listed on the most recent schedule that was released.
You can check out my current Dragon*Con schedule right here online on my calendar (which I just updated) or on this new page where I have posted my official schedule.
Oh no! I might not be able to get to the Mariott, if I see you somewhere else would you mind signing my book?
I hope you’ll be at Dragoncon! This is the first year I can afford to go and you and Abney Park are the only reasons I’m considering going. Their website didn’t say what day you would be there though, can’t afford all days.
We ARE going to Dragoncon this year! I’ll put it on the calendar properly later today. The best days to find us will be either Friday or Saturday of the convention. We will not be there on Sunday and Monday is not likely.
YAY! I will plan on Friday and Saturday then! ^o^
^///^ I have a book I was hoping to get you to sign, it has been on every continent as my friends have borrowed it. Might even still have some sand in it from Afghanistan (thereabouts, I’m not supposed to say where exactly) from when one of my friends took it with him on a contract for the Army. The book has meant a lot to a lot of different people.
hey big fan read many dragonlance novels anyways im on Dragoncon staff and i was wondering if you were gonna come this year
My wife and I are hoping to come this year! What do we have to do?
You’re not going to be at Dragoncon this year?
Yes! We now have our Dragoncon on the calendar. We’ll post the individual events here later in the day.
