<nettime-ann> Call for Participants: Emerging Writers Fair & Book Launch

[Mason Dixon <xchicago@gmail.com>]

.

> We want to launch your book. On a catapult. We're not kidding.
>
> If you have recently finished writing a book, or have published your  
> first book
> in the past year (or just feel like taking out some aggression on a  
> publication
> of your choice), we invite you to celebrate by launching your work  
> into
> space--or at least halfway down the block.
>
> In addition to the catapult book launch, we're hosting a literary  
> science fair
> so that you can receive proper admiration for your writing. Now is  
> your chance
> to explain to the world what's so special about your fiction, poetry,
> non-fiction...by means of a diorama, poster, or tri-fold board.  
> Baking soda
> volcanoes are welcome, colorful graphs encouraged.
>
> Because space is limited, if you'd like to participate in the  
> literary science
> fair, we'll need a short proposal for any table-top display, due by  
> 15 June.
> (We'll squeeze in as many as we can, but space will be available on a
> first-come, first-served basis.) Note that we have near-unlimited  
> room for wall
> poster displays. Out-of-town writers are encouraged to submit  
> posters, rather
> than moping at home all night on Facebook.
>
