Stop by the Austin Central Library to buy Play, With Knives, get your copy signed, or just say hi. From 1 to 2 p.m., I’ll be participating in a panel discussion about research for novel writing.

Five outstanding writers will read one page from a work in progress or recently published work, including writers Juli Berwald, Callie Collins, Rosemary Guzman Hook, Jeanette Horn, and Gary Keith. Plus, there will be literary chit chat and fun & games and laughter and so much more.
