To be fair, even if it was free, I wouldn't want to spend six weeks of my life listening to GRRM tell me how to disrespect and disappoint my audience. Or Neil Gaiman talk about making an inferior version of a better author's work while convincing gullible teenagers to come back to his hotel room, for that matter. Plus, most of the seminars would probably consist of listening to some self-centered narcissist talk about his gender journey at the conclusion of which I have to clap earnestly or I'm sent home, not to mention possibly losing my job when some irate volunteer complains to my employer that I wasn't "affirming". No big loss.
How much would you like to bet that they don't admit any hetero-normative white males, even if they pay their own way? I wish we could prove it and sue them.

I'm fat enough to look pregnant.
Does that count?
