Virtual Book Launch!

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, in-person book launch events are not happening just now, and to be honest, that’s okay with me. My last mini-book tour in North Carolina was fun, but it consumed several days of my time, not to mention cash and gas. Instead, Press 53 is hosting a virtual book launch for my new book, House of the Ancients and Other Stories, along with Shuly Cawood’s new story collection, A Small Thing to Want.

The event is on Sunday, May 3, at 2:00 pm ET and can be accessed on Zoom with pre-registration. Register for the event here. Alternatively, you can watch on Facebook Live on the Press 53 page. Shuly and I will read a little from our books, talk a little, and answer questions.
