The Art of the AWP Schedule

So how many times has this happened to you? You're going down a conference schedule, checking off panels that look interesting . . . you pass over some day parts totally, and then get to one day part where you're checking off EVERY PANEL. And you think to yourself, self, what can I do?

This happens with me at AWP a lot.

Anyway, the conference schedule is now up on the web, and it looks mighty fine:

And then I started checking off panels . . . alas. Am I really going to finally get a chance to hear Rae Armantrout read and then miss it?
