I am so excited to have been added to next years Battlestar Galactica convention in Texas! Galacticon III will be held next May in Houston Texas! Thanks so much to Shawn O'Donnell for inviting me and I will also be moderating a panel on Hispanics in Sci Fi and also giving a panel on my satires as well. Next what I need are great ideas for questions at the show!
Who are you favorite Sci Fi personalities who happen to be of Hispanic descent?
How does Science Fiction impact not only the Hispanic community, but humanity in general?
How does growing up Hispanic or something other affect your experience of science fiction? Or does Science Fiction affect how you grow up within a culture? What would Commander Adama say??? Please respond and send me your questions and thoughts as well! lightersidescifi@ao.com
SO SAY WE ALL!!!

I should also point out my friends that even though my name is Bourdony, I am actually what Hispanics affectionately refer to as a 'Newyorican'. My Mother was born in Puerto Rico and moved to NY at around 4 yers old and and my Father's Father was french and married a Puerto Rican woman (lucky guy). I was born in New York as a first generation fully integrated 'Newyorican'. Grew up in the Bronx and went to HS in Manhattan at LaGuardia H.S. of Music and Art (a magical place!) So while my name is Bourdony, I am also a Hispanic hair club member so to speak! ;) Thanks Shawn for pointing that out . . . ;) LOL
Here is a Battlestar Galactica related satire for all those Colonials who are not familiar with my work. Hope you enjoy!
