Hey F(r)iends, i’m looking forward to seeing some of you at the 25th Anniversary World Horror Convention & Bram Stoker Awards® Weekend in Atlanta, 7-10 May.
The programmers have put together a dazzling array of panels and events – I wish I could attend every single one.
(My schedule of panels, readings, screenings etc. is below.)
Please note, the Mass Signing Event is open to the public, so even if you’re not around for the whole convention do come along on the Friday for books and authors galore.
And my publisher, Samhain Horror, will be in the dealers’ room all weekend with a coffin load of scary books.
– it will be great to see you there!
Cheers,
Frazer
