Say farewell to Octavia Butler

mini-octavia-butler-3.jpgAs noted here and elsewhere, author Octavia Butler died last weekend.

Tonight, the Science Fiction Museum and Hall of Fame is hosting a memorial gathering. Not only was Butler a giant voice in SF, she served on the museum's Advisory Board. Local science fiction authors will read from her work and discuss her influence.

Speakers include Greg Bear, Joel Davis, L. Timmel DuChamp, Eileen Gunn, Brian Herbert, Leslie Howle, Vonda N. McIntyre, Nisi Shawl, Stephanie Ellis-Smith, and others.
Everyone's invited -- it starts tonight at 7:30 on the museum's third floor.
