Artists and art directors from different countries/industries
discuss the differences in their markets. What unconscious cultural
preferences exist? What makes a good book cover?
May seem like a strange choice, as I'm neither an artist nor a an art director. But for my series in Modan, I DO serve as a de facto art director, working with the cover designers to get the best cover for the books.
I'm landing in Glasgow at 17:30, so it should be a mad dash to the hotel and from there to the con. Thank GOD I'm staying at the Moat House, which is right next to the SECC.

Not on the official programme, but will be running around with a film crew, shooting Worldcon for a documentary on SF. So it's going to be busy...
Planning on hitting some of the publishers' parties (but that's just work again, isn't it?), and whatever else is going on. Don't think I'll be going to many panels, never been my thing though we might film one or two.
What other Israelis are going?
How does one get into those publisher's parties? If one is, say, an Israli SF editor?
A whole bunch of Israelis are coming. Those you know include Guy Hasson and Noa Manheim. For a full list, go here:

And search for "Israel"
Hey, glad to hear Noa is coming! Will you tell her I'll try and remember to bring her that Captain Yuno she's been looking for?
