  Over the past decades SFF fan culture has moved online in a big way, with a constellation of book blogs, websites and newsletters dedicated to all areas of the fandom. What are the main features of online fanzine culture in 2025? What benefits do these spaces bring, especially in an online culture dominated by Twitter and other short-form social media formats? How do online fanzines contribute to the continuous conversation that is SFF fandom? And where do we see online fanzines going in future?

  So you’ve found a new piece of media you really enjoy, and it’s going great! Except, all of the characters just happen to be white, cis and straight, with not a disabled body in sight. Somehow, all the mothers are dead, all the girlfriends have been fridged; that’s a lot to write off as an accident. Maybe new information has come to light about the media creator, and you can’t watch without thinking about it. What can you do? Our panelists explore the many ways fans choose to engage with problematic work without excusing the inexcusable: from critical analysis and transformative works, to walking away if they need to.

  Speculative fiction is often defined as works in conversation with each other. What works of recent SFF do we want to be part of the conversation in 2100? What stories, trends and movements from the last two decades do we hope will persist, and are there elements we want our successors to outgrow? What is our era of SFF going to look like to future generations? This panel takes a whirlwind tour through the genre fiction of the new now, stopping off on what we think are modern masterworks, overlooked gems and reflecting on the great stories the first two decades of this millennium gave us.

  小马出墙turbo破解

  We’re in the Mercury Age of speculative fiction: we like our fiction freeform and boundless and pushing genre conventions every turn. From NK Jemisin’s Broken Earth Trilogy to Tamsyn Muir’s Gideon the Ninth, by way of The Unspoken Name by AK Larkwood, and Dragon Pearl by Yoon Ha Lee, so much recent fiction blends traditional science fiction and fantasy tropes. What do we love about blending elements from different genres? How does it allow us to explore the structures of genre? And how can I get some motherforking dragons on this motherforking spaceship?

  Worlds that Breathe: Interactive Worldbuilding for Games

  Panel: Noria Reads (M), Avery @redrocketpanda, Helen Gould, Tanya DePass, Elsa Sjunneson
  Watch Here

  Games like Horizon Zero Dawn, Dark Souls, Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and Dragon Age immerse us in rich, interactive worlds. What makes worldbuilding in games unique and challenging when players can interact, explore, and miss things? How do game creators balance storytelling with the world itself needing to be a legible interface? How are players influenced to explore or ignore? How do biases on the part of the creators limit worldbuilding, and conversely, how do fans react to them?

  SFF Awards in the 2010s: A Retrospective

  Panel: Shaun Duke (M), Bogi Takàcs, Didi Chanoch, Usman T. Malik, Jeannette Ng
  Watch Here

  Awards have been a space for contesting values, meaning, and social change over the last decade. Some key moments included the Puppies’ attack on the Hugos, N. K. Jemisin's Hugo hat trick, the creation of the Lodestar Award, the introduction of the game writing Nebula category, the Archive of Our Own winning a Hugo, and the renaming of the Otherwise and Astounding awards - let's look back on the decade's struggles, triumphs, and WTF moments. How have awards addressed issues of diversity? Has the meaning of SFF awards changed as SFF entered the media landscape mainstream? What lessons can we take forward into the 2025s?

  Genre Podcasts: Beyond the Basics

  Panel: Jen Zink (M), Marguerite Kenner, Wil Williams, Tonia Ransom @ Nightlight Podcast, CL Clark
  小马出墙破解

  No one needs to ask what a podcast is anymore. But what differentiates an audio drama from audio fiction and are such distinctions even helpful to audiences? Why is audio presentation more prevalent among certain communities and genres? How do different podcasting formats facilitate critical analysis of books and media? Why aren’t transcripts commonplace, and will we see that change in light of the new ADA lawsuit against Gimlet Media?

  We live in an age with fantastic media coming at us from all angles: from ebook subscriptions to streaming services to podcasts, not to mention more traditional media. How do you write about the world of tomorrow when it’s coming at you this fast? What forms of criticism other than traditional long form reviews have evolved in the digital age? Our panel will discuss the many platforms and communities of fan criticism, from the audiovisual to the written word, and how different forms of critical discussion have evolved to create a “golden age” of fan criticism.
