Join Jaymee Goh for Asian Diaspora: How Colonization and Migration Changes Cuisine

Rick Klaw blog aliette de bodard, Anya Ow, Asian Diaspora: How Colonization and Migration Changes Cuisine, carl brandon society, jaymee goh, Michi Trota, Nibedita Sen, virtual event 0

Acclaimed writer, reviewer, editor, and essayist Jaymee Goh alongside fellow acclaimed authors Aliette de Bodard, Nibedita Sen, Michi Trota, and Anya Ow engage in fun discussion on food and culture on October 10, 9AM CT.

Food, sharing, cooking and eating is such an important part of many cultures – including survival, family, a sense of place. With over 60% of the world’s population, and a longer history of migration, colonization, empire – food has changed significantly as people have moved.

Join us for a brief foray with a diverse team of Asian authors with opinions about cooking, colonization, migration.

This panel will be livestreamed to YouTube on the 10th. To watch the event live (with the opportunity to ask questions!) or to get early access to the recording, make a donation by purchasing a ticket. All proceeds go to the Carl Brandon Society and support our major programs, including the Octavia E. Butler Scholarship for writers of color attending the Clarion and Clarion West writing workshops.

Join Kate Elliott, Vida Cruz, Piper J Drake, Rebecca Roanhorse, and Shveta Thakrar in a virtual discussion on using and creating mythologies

The Carl Brandon Society presents Mythology and Speculative Literature with authors Kate Elliott, Vida Cruz, Piper J Drake, Rebecca Roanhorse, and Shveta Thakrar as they discuss using and creating mythologies. The virtual panel occurs on Friday July 24, 9PM EDT/6PM PDT.

Mythology is a rich vein for writers to mine when it comes to making new stories. But what are some dead angles that writers have when it comes to mythology? How do you build new ones with depth? How can writers handle retellings to make them truly new? How do you go about integrating existing mythologies into your work in a respectful way, or should you do that at all?

Join science fiction and fantasy authors Vida Cruz, Piper J Drake, Kate Elliott, Rebecca Roanhorse, and Shveta Thakrar as they dig into how they answer these questions with their own work and research.

This panel will be livestreamed to YouTube on the 24th. To watch the event live (with the opportunity to ask questions!) or to get early access to the recording, make a donation by purchasing a ticket. All proceeds go to the Carl Brandon Society and support our major programs, including the Octavia E. Butler Scholarship for writers of color attending the Clarion and Clarion West writing workshops.
