Left Coast Crime

We may have mentioned that Fran (waves madly) is the Guest Fan of Honor at LCC this year in Seattle, and as such, she has one or two important roles to play.

But not alone! You see, on Thursday, April 11th, Fran will be joined by JB and Amber in a panel to discuss, well, books. Mysteries. Reminisce about the shop. Answer questions. Their panel is from 5:00 to 5:45 in Grand AB, so if you’re around, they’d love to see you there. There are no other competing panels – they’ll have the entire spotlight! Friendly faces are always important, and day passes are available. Please, please, please come say hi and ask softball questions!

Then on Saturday, Fran is on a panel with Lucinda Surber, Grace Koshida, Janet Rudolph, and our own Kim Krabill to talk, well, about books. It promises to be lots of fun, and we suspect some silliness might happen.

Then, too, Fran’s making her authorial debut in the anthology put together by the LCC crew, edited by Jim Thomsen, and with lots of other great authors.

You can pre-order it from the publisher in either ebook or physical copy, and it’s possible some of us will be available to sign said copies at some point during the conference.

The authors receive a small stipend, and then after costs, proceeds benefit Page Ahead, advocates for children’s reading in Seattle. They’re good folks and need all the support we can give them.

JB, Fran, and Amber hope you’ll be able to join them for their panel. See you soon!
