Warning: stripslashes() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /usr/www/users/sfsfc/worldfantasy/wfc2009/wp-content/plugins/deko-boko-a-recaptcha-contact-form-plugin/DekoBoko.php on line 634

Thank you for your interest in interacting with the media at WFC. Completing this survey as thoroughly and as soon as possible will make it much easier for us to put you in touch with journalists as well as avoiding conflicts with your travel plans.

Our media pack will be posted to the web site at the beginning of October. Completing this questionnaire early will ensure that you are included, but it is an electronic document so we can add late-comers.

Fields marked with * are required.

We are assuming as a default that the availability information you supplied on your programming questionnaire will apply to us too. If that is not the case, or you did not complete a programming questionnaire, please indicate which times during the convention you will be available to talk to the media.
Journalists may also with to contact you before or after the convention.
The next few questions are about the types of media people you would like to talk to.
Now please let us know how you would prefer to be interviewed.
Journalists are much more likley to be interested in you if there is a hook on which they can hang a story. This could be a new book, a recent award win, or a public event you have arranged in the Bay Area while you are here for the convention.
Our media pack will include a web site address so journalists can find out more about you.
We will not include contact details in the online media pack, but will give them to any accredited journalists who request them. If you want to have journalists contact an agent or personal assistant instead of you please note who the person is and their relationship to you in the box below.
If you did not fill in a program questionnaire, or would like to use a different biography for the media, please include one here.

John:

Thanks for the feedback. This sounds like a browser compatibility problem as we’ve tested the form and several people have already filled it in. I’ll email you to try to sort it out.

More generally, if people can’t read the words in the Recapchta box, try pressing the button with the recycle symbol on it – that should give you new words.

your spam filter is really a pain from a cell phone.

Jeff:

My apologies. The software that translates our web site for use on mobile phones is very good for ordinary posts, but not so good with anything specialized like plugins. I’m afraid we don’t have anyone with the skills to re-write the spam filter for mobile use ourselves. Hopefully, as use of web sites on mobiles becomes more common, the technology will improve.
