San Mateo County Fair/June 12: Writing Workshop (by Laurel Anne Hill) & Paramount Laser Spectacular’s Tribute to Michael Jackson

Laurel Anne Hill

Building New Worlds and Creating Compelling Characters: 
Writing Fantasy and Science Fiction (and general fiction, too)
June 12, 2010, San Mateo Events Center, Fiesta Building 2:30 – 3:30 pm

Are you writing or planning to write a short story or novel?  One filled with magic and dragons?  Steam-driven airships?  Adventures on distant planets?  Maybe even a  vampire romance?  If so, this workshop is for you.  Hey, even if your story is based in the “real world,” this workshop is for you. 

And what a deal!  Buy a June 12th pass ($10 for adults; discounts at COSTCO), attend my 2:30 workshop at no extra charge, then stroll around the fairgrounds until the tribute to Michael Jackson at 7:30 pm. 

Yes, I mentioned Michael Jackson.  A sure favorite this year is Paramount Laser Spectacular’s Tribute to Michael Jackson, an amazing multi?media experience spanning his forty?year career.  The show takes the audience on a visual journey highlighted with a stunning live performance featured in a ghost?like atmosphere,  with lasers and special effects.  Through the use of animated laser graphics, laser beams and aerials, the lights and lasers re?create images of Jackson with 3?D holographic effects.  The audience will be taken on a sonic journey through Jackson’s greatest hits by confronting the senses with an array of glowing visual displays and music.

So come learn about writing fantasy and science fiction, then experience a special effects fantasy.
