Local friends, check out this upcoming event!

The NorCal Chapter of Sisters in Crime has two showcases each year for authors with new publications. These are fun events where I’ve often discovered books to add to my to-read pile. Please join us in person at our Spring Showcase, or, if you can not be in Orinda, the event will be broadcast via Zoom. Sign-up in advance is required. Twelve authors will be reading/presenting. The tremendous ladies not shown in the image below are: Heather Haven, Katherine Bolger Hyde, Leslie Karst, Claudia Long, T.E. MacArthur, Nannette Potter, Cindy Sample, and Susan Shea.
Vinnie’s story “Room and Board” will be included in this gorgeous anthology, The Dark Waves of Winter, alongside works by greats like Lawrence Block. With a perfect noir touch, the book will launch on Friday the 13th (of January) in Hermosa Beach in the spot where the finale of “Carrie” was filmed with bloody Sissy Spacek marching down the long, exterior staircase!
No longer a school, 710 Pier Avenue is now the site of the Hermosa Beach Museum. The launch event begins there at 6 p.m. Vinnie and several other authors will be on hand to read delectably dark tales that defy the notion of a warm, sunny beach.
