Subject: Conference in Florida

I'm off to Florida tomorrow to attend the International Conference on the
Fantastic in the Arts, which is being held in Orlando.  I've been going for
years:  it's a really nice academic conference with about four hundred
attendees, most of them from universities and colleges, but quite a few
authors also go.  Lots of papers, in multiple sessions (that sometimes makes
it hard to choose which one to go to!), as well as panel discussions and
author readings--not to mention the various activities scheduled in the
evenings.

This year, for the first time, I'm giving a paper on Forever Knight.

It's a funny thing, but people give lots of papers on other vampires (in
books, films, and TV); but you hardly ever get one on Forever Knight.  I
figured it was about time.  Also, I've been doing so much work on the
Forever Knight Wiki that the show's been in my mind a lot.

The paper's called "(Meta)Physical Reflections on Forever Knight".  It
discusses the odd balance that the show keeps between the
physical/medical/scientific approach to vampires and the
metaphysical/supernatural approach.  I discuss everything from vampire
eating habits to near-death experiences!

That sounds wonderful, Greer! Good luck and have fun. I'd love to
read your paper sometime!
