Experting at Imaginarium once again

For the eighth straight year, I’ll be involved with Imaginarium, an annual convention in Louisville, Ky., for writers, creatives, and fans of creators of all genres that features three days of panel and workshop programming, an expo, a film festival, entertainment, cosplay, and more.

Imaginarium, to be conducted July 14-16, is celebrating its 10th anniversary. It features a broad array of guests and panelists, including authors, editors, publishers, filmmakers, screenwriters, game designers, comic creators, artists, actors, and many other creatives. The convention is an inclusive environment that fosters networking, learning, professional opportunities, promotional opportunities, and other benefits to independent creatives.

My schedule this year includes serving on panels for “Ethics of Writing True Crime” and “A Guide to Writing Non-Fiction.” I might be involved with other panels; you just never know.

Make sure to check out my two nonfiction books: Murder in Wauwatosa: The Mysterious Death of Buddy Schumacher, and Wicked Columbus, Indiana.

Meanwhile, my wife, Kimberly S. Hoffman, will sell her children’s books as well as essential oil diffuser bracelets at the gig. She will also moderate the panel, “Writing Children’s Books.”

Also in attendance at Imaginarium will be one of the authors we’ve published with my company, PathBinder Publishing LLC. John Bukowski, the author of the thrillers Checkout Time and Project Suicide, will lead a workshop on “Effective Research” and will serve on panels for “Can Writers & Readers Ever Really Trust Each Other?” and “Enhancing Vocabulary & Grammar.”
