MediaWest UNCLE Panel

Since I thought it was a shame that there were only 2 UNCLE panels listed for MW this year, I wracked my brains and came up with a new topic at the last minute. I've heard back from the Programming people that they've accepted it, though it isn't showing on the website list of topics yet.

The topic is:
A. Television: Man from U.N.C.L.E.
Espionage Plot, Character Study or Romance. Slash or gen, what kind
of U.N.C.L.E story do you most like to read or write?

The topic was inspired by a continued conversation I've been having with a (non-UNCLE) fannish friend (hi [livejournal.com profile] stormheller) about how much slash can be considered part of the Romance tradition. (Stormy says she's writing more romance; me, I'm usually, though not always, thinking about the action genre end of things.) I think the same thing dichotomy exists in gen, and since I always like seeing the two wings of UNCLE mix, I included both types of fanfic in the description.

My next goal is to get a few people signed up on the panel with me. So, for the UNCLE types on my flist, if you're at all interested in this, and you're going to be at MW, it would be awesome to have you on the panel.

The instructions for signing up are here

Can't we just come along and heckle? ;)

Sure you can heckle. But then I'm dragging you up on the panel with me.

But I'm already doing two panels, including a WWW one! *looks pitiful*

Besides, heckling is more fun! :P

Okay, then can I heckle your WWW one? *g*

I guess that depends on whether you've finished your story for GNT or not. ;)

La la la, I can't hear you.

Pffft. Keep staring at that icon and it should all come rushing back... ;)
