Scott Edelman reading from What Will Come After at Readercon
Posted by Paul Raven on July 12th, 2010 at 12:33
If there’s one convention on the yearly calendar that makes me wish I lived in the US, it’s Readercon. Much as I like the pot-luck lunacy of more general conventions, the idea of a weekend devoted purely to geeking out over books in the company of other book-geeks is my idea of paradise.
Readercon took place this weekend just gone in Burlington, Massachusetts, and there were a handful of PS people there: Robert Freeman Wexler, Beth Bernobich and Paul Di Filippo, for instance. And also Scott Edelman, who got someone to video him reading the story “Tell Me Like You Done Before” from his collection of zombie tales, What Will Come After:
Scott (canny devil that he is) skipped a few pages in the middle… so if you want to know the whole story, I guess you’ll just have to buy yourself a copy! But given you get another eight critically-aclaimed stories into the bargain, presented in a luxurious and handsome limited edition binding, we like to think that’s a pretty good deal. :)
Robert Freeman Wexler interviewed by Genreville

In case you’ve not heard already, Rose Fox and compatriots are in the process of rebooting the Publishers Weekly genre fiction blog – so if you want to keep up to date on what’s going down in sf, fantasy, horror and all their hybrids, you should think about adding Genreville to your list of must-read sites.
They’re also starting to do videos, the first of which is of an interview with Kaaron Warren and our very own Robert Freeman Wexler after their recent appearance at a KGB Fantastic Fiction reading event in New York City. The sound isn’t too great, but they’ve captioned the video to make up for it. Take a look:
For those who prefer old-school text, there’s a transcript at Genreville, too.
