Les Imaginales Schedule
Next week, I have the honor of being part of Les Imaginales, the international festival of fantasy literature in Épinal, France. In fact, I’m doubly honored, since Le Bibliomancien (the French edition of Libriomancer, translated by Lionel Davoust) is one of six finalists for the Prix Imaginales award in the foreign novel category.
Les Imaginales has posted my schedule for the fair. Here’s everything I’ll be up to in France:
Tuesday, May 16
- 6:30 – 8 p.m. Booksigning at Librairie la Dimension Fantastique.
Thursday, May 18
- 10 – 11 a.m. Coup d’envoi des Imaginales (Opening kickoff)
- 11 a.m. – Noon. La fantasy…
Friday, May 19
- 2 – 3 p.m. Livres et lecteurs… (Books and readers)
Saturday, May 20
- 9 – 10 a.m. Petit Déjeuner avec Jim C. HINES (Breakfast with Jim)
- Noon – 1 p.m. Entretien avec Jim C. HINES (Interview with Jim)
- 4 – 5 p.m. Ils viendront vous traquer… (They will come to hunt you down…)
Wait, what? Is Google translating that last panel correctly? What kind of festival is this?
Anyone know of any good bodyguard services in France?

The entire program name for the last one is “Ils viendront vous traquer… Jusque dans vos rêves !” (They will come to hunt you down… even in your dreams!) But there’s no more detail on the program page 😀
So your guess is as good as mine as to what this is about (probably about Fantasy again :))
Too bad Épinal is situated so far from where I live, I would have visited to hear you.
I hope you do have fun and that travel-depression doesn’t strike too badly.
