Writers, artists, and fans in the SF community donate their work and their time to the Susan C. Petrey Scholarship auction at Orycon, Portland's annual regional SF convention. Each year, the Scholarship Fund sends aspiring writers to the Clarion and Clarion West Writers Workshops and sponsors an instructor at one of the workshops.
Writer and SFWA member Ellen Klages and Mainstream editor Jerry Kaufman, renowned for their showmanship, will conduct the auction.
These are a few of the highlights of the auction. There are always many wonderful last minute additions. Many items can be previewed in the dealers room.
Debbie Cross and Paul Wrigley, fund administrators, offer special thanks to all of their donors including Grocery Outlet, Laurie Toby Edison, Ruth Sachter, Malinda McFadden, David Haugen, Roz Malin, Dick Pilz, John Bunnell, Wrigley-Cross Books, Jay Lake, Vonda N. McIntyre, Night Shade Books, David Delamare and many others.
