Past Events~
Dana has been so busy that she's a little behind on updating her recent event list. The following are some past events.
October 17th, 2011- Boucheron by the Bay
A SinC panel for an AAUW fundraiser at the San Jose Historical Park. The event took place in an old firehouse and was an absolute blast. With me on the panel were Kelli Stanley and Penny Warner.
A panel at A Great Good Place for Books in Montclair with Janet La Pierre, Diana Orgain, and Penny Warner.
A presidential face-off at the Concord Library for their Mystery Sunday between me (current president of SinC NorCal) and Simon Wood (current president of MWA).
A Morbid Curiosity Cures the Blues panel at the West Hollywood Book Fair with editor Loren Rhoads, Del Howison (owner of the fabulous Dark Delicacies Bookstore), and JD. (Here’s the link to the wonderful MC book trailer!)
Another MCCtB panel at Pegasus Books with A.M. Muffaz, Allegra Lundyworf, and Darren Mckeeman.
A fantabulous evening of entertainment at the Hypnodrome with the Thrill Peddlers and a slew of MC authors: Jill Tracy, William Selby, Gravity Goldberg, Dana Fredsti, Russell Blackwood reading M. Parfitt, and Will Freitas reading Frank Burch. (Note: If I don’t have a link to an author, it’s because I don’t currently have their website info!)
An interview for Morbid Curiosity Cures the Blues here
A reading with co-author Cynthia Gentry at the Center for Sex and Culture from our book Secret Seductions (I wrote under the name Roxanne Colville for this one).
A WOMBA book event at West Portal Books for Secret Seductions.
And a couple of other events I can’t find the info for. Sigh. See what happens when I put things off?! Looking at my website, I haven’t even managed to get the two books I co-wrote with Cynthia up there yet. That would be Secret Seductions and What Women Really Want in Bed, btw.
