ALAN DEAN FOSTER TO TELL WRITERS HOW TO STAY AHEAD OF SCIENCE
Science fiction is often praised, or accused, writer Alan Dean Foster says, of trying to predict the future. The problem nowadays is that writers struggle to stay ahead of actual developments in science. Foster will discuss how a writer can avoid falling behind the curve not only of technology, but of change in society and culture, when he presents “Tomorrow’s Future Today” at the January meeting of the Professional Writers of Prescott.
(Foster's work includes excursions into hard science fiction, fantasy, horror, detective, western, historical, and contemporary fiction. He has also written numerous nonfiction articles on film, science, and scuba diving. He wrote the story for the first “Star Trek” movie, as well as the novel versions of many films, including “Star Wars,” the first three “Alien” films, “Star Trek,” “Terminator: Salvation,” and both “Transformers” films. His novel “Shadowkeep” was the first ever book adaptation of an original computer game.)

I heard you can even send stale pancakes through the mail. Bake!!!!!!!! Cookies!!!! Stamps and ink, colored pencils, paper, and the likes will be provided. I highly doubt the pens available will work, so you should probably bring your own. Maybe you'll want to use a calligraphy pen, anyways, which is more specialized. I will purchase stamps, but will ask for a reimbursement of for each stamp you use. This will save you the annoying trip of waiting in line at the post office.
