Saturday Afternoon Readings and Kaffeeklatsches

Readings and Kaffeeklatsches will be held on Discord in the “Readings and Kaffeeklatsch” video chat rooms. This is a great time to get some one-on-few time with a guest and ask them questions in casual, fun settings while possibly also getting a sneak peak at some new work.

Room 3: Marc L. Abbott

Hi everyone. My Marc L Abbott, author, storyteller, actor and, when I have time, filmmaker. I’m really glad you’re taking the time out to stop by and hang out. I have a couple of things in mind that we can do while you’re here and being that we are in Halloween Season, what better time to talk about horror than now? So here are some options, you tell me what you’d like to hear or discuss:
1- A excerpt reading from my book Hell at the Way Station
2- Tropes in Horror: How POC and other marginalized individuals are seen in Horror
3- I Never Saw That: Semi Cult Classic horror films that you may have heard of but never saw.
4- What Scares You and Why? Let’s talk about our favorite horror movies or books and discover what makes them so appealing.
We can talk about one or mix it up and cover a lot of ground. Let’s hang out and have a great discussion!

Room 4: Travis Tippens

I'm here to chat about podcasting, fantasy books, and what it's like to moderate an online community like Reddit Fantasy.

Room 5: Violette L. Meier
