Bouchercon approaches

We've got about 5 weeks till it's that time again. Mystery fans and writers and booksellers all gathered in one place to ... well, to drink alot and hang out, but also to share our love of mysteries.

The panel assignments have gone out and the ladies in charge are going through the emails involved with notifiying everyone and rearranging the schedul to make everyone happy, so it shouldn't be too long before the panels are listed on the website.

I'm moderating a panel called "Hey Kids! Comics!" with a number of authors who also write comics ( or graphic novels), including David Morrell, Max Allan Collins, Denise Mina and Gary Phillips. 1:00 on Friday.
Ruth is doing a panel on Thursday with Stephen Booth, Danuta Reah, Declan Hughes and Arnaldur
Indridason.

Friday will see Jennifer make her Bouchercon Panel Debut on Sarah Weinmann's reviewing panel at 2:30.


The Crimespree Party will be Thursday night at 8:00 till 12:00 and we'll have free beer ( while it lasts) We are hosting the party with Bleak House Books.

Friday night will see Crimespree co-sponsewring a movie by an independant film maker. The film is called "ten till noon".

We're stil planning a prty in Milwauke Tuesday night, however we wo't be doing the paintball because we didn't have enough people to make it affordable.

Wednesday we head to Madison around 1:00pm. If you are planning on being in Milwaukee before Bouchercon drop me a line.
