Creature Feature: Monsters of Urban Fantasy
\nFri 5:00pm-6:00pm Cascade 6
\nWerewolves, Vampires, and Trolls, oh my! We all have favorites among the vast number of creatures that inhabit urban fantasy alongside humans. What are they \u2013 and why? Do the fantasy archetypes (vampire, werewolf, fairy, and so on) give us a shortcut to understanding a particular character and their motivation? How do authors use these creatures as metaphors for our own personalities and desires?
\nKat Richardson (M), Ann Gimpel, Rhiannon Held<\/p>\n
Worldbuilding 101
\nSat 1:00pm-2:00pm Evergreen 1&2

\nBrenda Carre (M), Rhiannon Held, Nancy Kress, Pat MacEwen, Angel Leigh McCoy<\/p>\n
Reading: Rhiannon Held
