I’m looking forward to Left Coast Crime next week, when hundreds of crime fiction writers and readers will gather together in beautiful Vancouver. On Friday at 9 am, I’ll be on a panel on Short Fiction & Novellas, along with moderator Kate Thornton, M.H. Callway, Miriam Clavir, and DJ Wiseman. We’ll be talking about short stories and big ideas.

The conference is only open by registration but it’s still possible to register for just a day or for the whole conference. If you do, Miriam Clavir and I are hosting an author’s table at the banquet on Saturday night. I hope you’ll join us.
