Fantastic news, Champions! The Sheacon Planners have an official panel schedule to share with you for Sheacon 2021–which, reminder–will be from August 6th to August 8th. I’ve been looking forward to this event, particularly since Trial of Magic will release the week before (July 30th) because we’re going to have so much to talk about! But, onto the schedule!
Open ceremonies begin Friday the 6th at 6 pm central time.
We’re kicking off our first panel with a slew of fantasy authors: Deborah Grace White, Tara Grayce, Sarah K L Wilson, Kimberly A Rogers, and Julie Hall This fantasy panel will begin at 7 PM central time!
For our internationals–or for those of you who love staying up late–I’ll be interviewing W. R. Gingell–an urban fantasy and fairy tale author who wrote one of my all time favorite series, City Between. This WR Gingell Fangirl panel interview starts at 11 pm central.
Saturday, the 7th, we’ve got a panel with yours truly starting at 11 am central.
In the afternoon at 4 PM central time, there is a fairy tale panel with some of your favorite fairy tale retelling authors: Camille Peters, AG Marshall, Allison Tebo, S. R. Nulton, and JM Stengl!
Saturday evening at 7 PM we’ve got Celebrity, Retha themed D&D where our favorite GM Zooknar will be guiding myself, AG Marshall, Vin, and RayJay through a Retha themed D&D Campaign!
On the last day of Sheacon–Sunday the 8th–I’ll be holding a panel at 12 pm central.
There will be an art panel at 3 pm central where Myrrhlynn–the artist of those quote graphics and all the promo image graphics you see everywhere–and RayJay–the artist of all the quiz graphics and Retha guild emblems–will be residing!
Champion Trivia–a popular favorite from last year that is returning again–will be held at 7 pm central with me guessing the meaning of commonly used nicknames, etc used by the Champions.
Finally, Closing Ceremonies will be held at 8 pm central.
In addition to the panels, there will be other fun games and events like D&D, Drawing with a Twist, Riddles, etc. Some of the fun will be scheduled, some will be open all hours. Moreover, there’s also going to be a giant list of goodies for you to grab, so make sure you check out that channel when Sheacon starts!
To join Sheacon you’ll need to have a discord account! When Sheacon opens, the Planners will post a link to the server in the Sheacon 2021 channel of our KM Shea community server–here is an invite to that server if you haven’t joined yet. I’d advise that you join now so you’re ready for the big day, and so you can ask fellow Discord Champions for any help, should you need it.
