No twain is not a dieing topic, but it is bad timing since there is another mla at the same time which has a full panel.

I suggest that you go to a university near where your conference is and go talk to the lit profs to see if they have any students interested. That is what I do and I get a full panel before cfp is even out!
Good luck
Jules
