GS Jennsen
MisCon 40 Attending Professional
G. S. JENNSEN lives in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho with her husband and two dogs. She has become an internationally bestselling author since her first novel, Starshine, was published in 2014. While she has been a lawyer, a software engineer and an editor, she’s found the life of a full-time author preferable by several orders of magnitude. When she isn’t writing, she’s gaming or working out or getting lost in the mountains and lakes that loom large outside the windows in her home

This isn't a formal panel with panelists up on the stage discussing a topic. Instead, everyone will grab chairs in the pavilion, and the moderator will get things going. Then we'll open things up so small group hangouts can happen until the end of the hour. This is your chance to informally meet a bunch of the people you'll see on panels all weekend.

Sun 10:00 - 10:50 AM, Science Fiction: What Is It?, Monster Tent
Panelists: GS Jennsen, Danith McPherson, Steven L SearsMysteries need mystery, right? Romances need romance. Horror needs horror. Does Science Fiction simply require "science?" That's not really accurate. SF is a huge genre that sprawls across places, times, technology. It asks questions about humanity, morality, the future, and usually provokes thought about the real world. Let's discuss what makes stories science fiction.
