I am available to sit on panels. I’m a woman, a SFF geek, a fanzine writer/editor, I have a Master of Social Science AND I’m interested in social issues. I prefer lots of notice as I like to do lots of research before panels, just like I do lots of research before interviewing people. I have public speaking training and experience in addition to the usual oral presentations that were part of my undergraduate and postgraduate studies.
