Join me at Austin’s Vintage Bookstore and Wine Bar

What happens when a bunch of crime writers get together to talk about the 1980s? I’m not 100 percent sure to be honest, but we’re going to find out later today.

I’ll be at Vintage Bookstore & Wine Bar in Austin this Saturday, July 19 (1–3pm), joining editor Michael Bracken and contributors James A. Hearn, Laura Oles, and Mark Thielman for a panel on the new anthology Sleuths Just Wanna Have Fun: Private Eyes in the Materialistic Eighties.

We’ll be in conversation with Scott Montgomery of The Hard Word; expect tales of private eyes, creative writing, and, possibly, the many joys of the Atari 2600.

Totally free. Totally public. Totally tubular.
