My upcoming events in Seattle

Cory Doctorow 10:57 am Thu Jul 9, 2015

I'm teaching the Clarion West writing workshop in Seattle in late July, and you can come see me at two events, one on July 25, the other on July 28.

Postcyberpunk and Paella: An intimate evening with Cory Doctorow and Peter Biddle to benefit Clarion West.

July 25, 2015 at 7 p.m.
Location: Seattle’s Beacon Hill

Cory Doctorow in Conversation: Please join us for an evening of conversation with Cory Doctorow on July 28 at 7 p.m. at the University Temple United Methodist Church, 1415 Northeast 43rd Street, Seattle (across the street from the University Book Store).

Teaching Clarion West is a tough grind. I'm afraid that I won't have time for any social calls on this trip — advance notice!

See you there!
