Hi
folks,
Lot
of stuff going on! Just returned from Indy where I gave a workshop on Thelma
& Louise and then had dinner with Joe Lansdale. And now, it’s gonna get
busy up in here!
On
May 12, I fly to Austin, Texas where that night at 7 pm I get to take part in a
Noir @ the Bar event, hosted by Scott Montgomery of Texas largest independent
bookstore, Book People, at the Threadgill’s Bar on Riverside Drive. If you’re
in the area, stop in and listen to me, Jesse Sublett, Con Lehane and Jordan
Harper reading our stuff. For details, check here: http://www.bookpeople.com/event/noir-bar-feat-les-edgerton-jordan-harper-con-lehane-jesse-sublett
Scott Montgomery and Reavis Wortham at BookPeople
Then,
as soon as we’re done, Scott is going to drive me over to San Antonio where I’ll
be for the next week at the Writer’s Retreat Workshop (WRW) at the Oblate
Retreat as a staffer. Bunch of really good folks appearing there, including
Reavis Wortham, Tex Thompson, David Corbett, Michelle Johnson, Matthew Brock,
Carol Dougherty, Jason Sitzes, Marjorie Brody, Carl Brush, Scott Montgomery, and Lisa Pirc.
Some of the back row "bad boys" at WRW...
As
it turns out, four more openings for participants for WRW just became
available. If interested, just go to their webpage for complete info. If you
can swing it, I think you’ll find it to be an experience truly transformative for
your writing career. At http://www.writersretreatworkshop.com/index.html
Yesterday,
I was honored to have my book BOMB! reviewed on the Booked Podcast. Check it
out at:http://www.bookedpodcast.com/304-bomb/
And,
a few days back, I had a ton of fun being interviewed by Tom Pitts on his
podcast, Skid Row Chatter, on the Authors on the Air podcast. Check it out at:
That’s
all, folks! Hope to see some of you at some of these events. And, I know it's short notice, but if you can make it to WRW I think you'll discover it to be a major turning point in your writing career.
Blue
skies,
Les
