I can’t wait to welcome Lindsay Merbaum to Philadelphia to celebrate her novel Vampires at Sea!
Tues., Feb. 10
6:30 pm
The Head & The Hand (Philadelphia, PA)
“Don your favorite fangs and vampire fashions and join us for a night of silly, sexy fun with Lindsay Merbaum, author of the queer horror-comedy Vampires at Sea. Lindsay will discuss her novella with local author Stephanie Feldman, lead a round of vampire-themed trivia, and share sex/relationship advice from Rebekah, an emotional vampiress and the narrator of Vampires at Sea.”
I can’t wait to celebrate the launch of AC Wise’s new novel, Ballad of the Bone Road.
Sultry Hollywood glamour and dark fae treachery collide in the latest novel of mystery, horror, and magic from A. C. Wise. In Ballad of the Bone Road, two paranormal investigators work to clear the glittering city of Port Astor of ghosts and demons, but they’ve both got secret baggage: Belleweather shares her body with a demon and Brix has trapped his fiance’s ghost in his home.
Join us for conversation and cocktails on January 27, 6:30 pm, at Main Point Books in Wayne, PA!
This event is free; RSVPS are requested via Eventbrite. Books may be purchased in advanced through Eventbrite or the store’s website, and signed copies may be purchased to mail within the U.S.
