Dragon*Con 2007: Blood and Fur
I'm attending Dragon*Con in Atlanta this weekend and thought I would start discussions for each of the four panels I'm sitting on as a guest panelist.
If anyone wants to contribute to the discussion, whether or not you are attending, please feel free to do so here.
Blood and Fur
Panelists: Heidi Heiner, Cassandra Clare, Diana Gallagher, Diana Herald, Scott Westerfeld
Description: From Stephenie Meyer to Cassandra Clare, books about vampires and werewolves are enjoying a hair-raising resurgence in popularity. Join us as we discuss why they are resonating with readers and learn about some of the new blood in this growing genre.

Re: Dragon*Con 2007: Blood and Fur
i'd recommend at least a mention of Clifford Simak's The Werewolf Principle. He's a really quite unusual, truly American writer.
