SQUEE! Proposal for Prophecy ACCEPTED!

"We are pleased to inform you that your proposal for a roundtable entitled "Characterization of Canon Characters in Slash Fanfiction Writing" has been accepted by the vetting committee as a part of Prophecy's daytime Formal Programming. Congratulations!"
There's obviously more to it, but in short, I've been accepted! So, now that I have that assurance, I want to tell everyone about it, and ask you to attend! I wanted to have a guided round-table style presentation discussing how fanfiction authors approach the characterization of our canon males in slash fanfiction. I've noticed that people often approach writing characters differently, depending on if they're going to be gay or straight, despite the fact that the personality of the character really shouldn't change. At least, I don't think it much should. Either way, I proposed a discussion and here's what I submitted:
