The Quickening

I will be there! I am really excited!

I will be doing a bookS signing at at bar in midtown KC, Chez Charlies, 3809 Broadway, starting at 3 p.m. Dec. 21. Free eats. Much of my work is set in Kansas or Kansas City. Will have seven titles available. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field...
