Part of Norwescon 35! Charles “Zan” Christensen (The Mark of Aeacus, The Power Within) reads his short story from The Lavender Menace from Lethe Press, a collection of stories about gay super-villains scheduled for release in 2012. In it, a flirtatious rivalry between a hero and villain (a la Batman and Catwoman) comes to a climactic finish. What kind of plan could a spurned villain concoct to exact revenge? Will the hero survive? Rated PG. Cascade 1

Part of Norwescon 35! Science fiction and fantasy authors often use the fringes of mainstream culture as plot material. How do authors portray gender and sexuality in their works; and how realistic are the works of those who write outside their own identities? Are the tales of early authors who played with gender still relevant? And have these works changed fannish attitudes, and made those in the QUILTBAG community feel welcome?
Charles “Zan” Christensen (co-creator of The Power Within) joins moderator Dennis R. Upkins and panelists Keffy R. M. Kehrli and Jeliza Patterson. Cascade 5
