Returning Guests: Michael Carroll, John Vaughan
Submitted by Danielle Lavigne on 28. September 2009 - 1:58Two of Octocon's perenial favourite guests are returning in 2010 to discuss their work, and their thoughts on numerous subjects.
Michael Carroll, the astonishing author of The Quantum Prophecy and Superhuman novels and short stories, is welcomed back with open arms and we couldn't be happier to have him. Michael has written for such comic books as 2000 AD and FutureQuake.
Film-maker John Vaughan will also be returning, best known for the award-winning My Dad, which he calls "true horror". John Vaughan is also the man behind Octocon's Sci-Fi film festival, The Golden Blasters. We're so glad to have him back for 2010.
These two people have contributed so much to Octocon and we thank them from the bottom of our hearts.
Lots of love,
Octocon
