Author-Reader Connections
One of the best things about Left Coast Crime is the chance to get to know your fellow readers and writers. But sometimes, during the excitement and flurry of activities, it’s not always easy to find time to meet your favorite writer. For Left Coast Crime 2015: Crimelandia, Co-Chair Bill Cameron launched Author-Reader Connections to provide an easy forum for readers and authors to enjoy some time together. An Author-Reader Connection might include a snack or a drink, a swim at one of the three hotel pools, or a walk together on or near the hotel grounds. These Author-Reader Connections are free, and in some cases may include some special benefits from the authors. Click the title of each event for all the details.
Please do not sign up for more than two Author-Reader Connections at this time, and no more than one per host. (This may change if we end up with extra spaces.)
Check back here often, as we’ll be adding more Author-Reader Connections right up till the start of the convention. Hint: Click the TITLE below for more details. On the details page click the REGISTER button to see how many spots are still open.
