My paper for SFRA 2011, which I have retitled “A Cognitive Approach to Science Fiction,” is nearly at a first draft stage. Its argument is central to my dissertation, which I have been working on for a short time now. However, I am finding new ways to craft my argument while cutting down how much I have to say for the purposes of a conference presentation. I believe that this exercise is becoming a useful one for my thinking and sharing my work abroad. I am hopeful that my presentation will generate questions and comments in Poland.

Three Weeks Until SFRA 2011 in Poland
In three weeks, I am looking forward to seeing Pawel Frelik and my other SFRA friends in Poland for the annual Science Fiction Research Association conference. I am in the process of writing my paper now, which is an adaptation of a chapter of my dissertation on cognitive science, cognitive cultural studies, and science fiction. Good luck to the other attendees on your writing for the conference. See you soon!
Deadline for SFRA 2011 Submissions is Friday, April 15
A friendly reminder: Please send Pawel Frelik your abstracts and register to attend the annual Science Fiction Research Association’s conference, which will take place this year in Lublin, Poland on July 7-10. All of the details can be found here. See you all there!
