Pediatric AIDS Coalition Dance Marathon Fundraising Event, April 8-9
Posted in Uncategorized on March 13, 2017| Leave a Comment »
(from my son, David)
On April 8-9th, I will be participating in the UCLA Dance Marathon to raise funds for the Pediatric AIDS Coalition. I will dance for 26 hours to raise awareness and funds for education and treatment for children with AIDS around the world. Prior to the event, I am fundraising a minimum of 260 dollars towards the cause. UCLA’s PAC has teamed up with the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation (EGPAF) which for 25 years has worked to raise funds and awareness to help combat AIDS worldwide. EGPAF is the primary beneficiary of Dance Marathon (70%) followed by Project Kindle (19%), UCLA AIDS Institute (10%), and UCLA PAC (1%).
Anything helps! Please help me in taking a stand against pediatric AIDS and donate on my behalf by following the link below!

FOGcon 7 is here, at the fabulous Walnut Creek Mariott. Honored guests are Delia Sherman and Ayize Jama-Everett. Honored Ghost is Iain Banks.
Theme: Interstitial Spaces
“Interstitiality is a theme which is simultaneously genuinely interesting and potentially quite useful, and also a terrible cliché, so if you’re going to use it, it helps to be at least respectfully skeptical about the wilder claims of some of its theoretical partisans, I think. ” –China Miéville, on The City & the City
I will be lurking about for much of the weekend. Scheduled spots are:
Reading: Friday, 3 PM
Panel: Friday, 4:30 PM. Can Movies Based on Games Ever Be Watchable?
Panel: Saturday, 3 PM. The Writer As Resistor
Workshop: Sunday, 3 PM. Leading a Writers’ Workshop session.
