Our original hope and intent was to hold some kind of Gala for the finale of our 20th Anniversary Season, but those plans will have to be postponed.\u00a0Instead, we’re going to plan a Gala for early next season. But I’m sure you won’t be let down by the fabulous line-up we have in store for you this Tuesday, June 1st.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the past we have featured members of such writers groups asTabula Rasa<\/strong>. This time, coming in to cap our season are three members of\u00a0Altered Fluid.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Altered Fluid<\/strong> is a speculative fiction writers’ group based in Manhattan. Its members have been meeting since 2001 to workshop their short stories and novels of science fiction, horror, fantasy and slipstream. Its ranks include some of the rising stars in the genre and Fluidians have been nominated for this year’s Nebula Award, Hugo Award and Campbell Award, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

N. K. Jemisin <\/strong>is a Brooklyn writer of short stories and novels. Her first novel, THE HUNDRED THOUSAND KINGDOMS, is out now from Orbit Books, and she is hard at work on the third novel of this trilogy. Her short stories have been published in\u00a0Postscripts<\/em>,\u00a0Clarkesworld<\/em>,Strange Horizons<\/em>,\u00a0Baen’s Universe<\/em>,\u00a0Escape Pod<\/em> and\u00a0Podcastle<\/em>. One of those short stories, “Non-Zero Probabilities,” has been nominated for this year’s Hugo and Nebula awards, as well as the StorySouth Million Writers Top Ten. Her Web site is at http:\/\/nkjemisin.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

E.C. Myers: <\/strong>Since attending Clarion West and joining Altered Fluid in 2005, E.C. Myers has sold short stories to various magazines and anthologies, including\u00a0Andromeda Spaceways Inflight Magazine<\/em>,\u00a0Blood Sisters: Lesbian Vampire Tales<\/em>,\u00a0Loving the Undead<\/em>, and\u00a0Shimmer Magazine<\/em>. He’s currently finishing his fourth young adult novel, blogs about\u00a0Star Trek<\/em> for Tor.com, edits the Clarion West alumni newsletter, co-moderates the GothamLit listserv for speculative fiction events in New York, and wastes time on the Internet when he should be writing or sleeping.

Devin Poore<\/strong> left the wilds of Indiana at the age of 18 for Uncle Sam’s Yacht Club, otherwise known as the U.S. Navy. After six years of working on and utilizing shipboard anti-aircraft missile systems, he left the Navy and, following several twists and turns, settled in the New York City area. Devin’s non-fiction and fiction has appeared in Sybil’s Garage, where he is now an associate editor. When he isn’t writing short stories and novels that deal with everything from vampires to magic to the Civil War, he makes his living as a computer consultant, and builds highly detailed models of ships most people have never heard of. He currently resides in Hoboken, NJ, with his wonderfully talented fiance’, dancer and choreographer Kristen Mangione. He can be found online at http:\/\/www.devinjpoore.com <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
