Meetings

PSFS meets monthly, usually on the second Friday of the month. Meetings usually feature a guest speaker known in the SFF community along with lively back-and-forth discussions. 

Recent guests have included Carmen Maria Machado, Josiah Bancroft, Tom Purdom, Jon McGoran, Madeleine Miller, Fonda Lee, Jeanne Cavelos, Jonathan Lethem, Vandana Singh, PJ Manney, Jason Sanford, John Wiswell, Cat Rambo, Jo Walton, Stephanie Feldman, Ray Nayler, Premee Mohamed, Randee Dawn, Ellen Datlow, Walter Hunt, and Gregory Frost. 

Since Covid, our meetings have been a combination of remote (via Zoom) and in-person. Locations for in-person meetings are either at St. Mary’s Church at Penn, 3916 Locust Walk, Philadelphia PA 19104, or the Rotunda, 4014 Walnut Street, Philadelphia PA 19104. 

Our next meeting will be Friday, July 12 at 8 pm. This virtual meeting will feature our annual Hugo Review Panel. During the Hugo Review Panel, a panel of volunteer readers discusses all the current Hugo nominees for novels, novellas, novelettes, short stories, graphic novels, and short and long-form dramas. This event is timed to come soon before the announcement of the year’s Hugo winners, and is a great way to learn about some of the previous year’s best writing and viewing.
