Kevin at West Hollywood Book Fair

 I'm very lucky to be speaking at the West Hollywood Book Fair this week. I've attended the event as an audience member before (and nearly collided with Gore Vidal on my way to a panel) and am always impressed with both the talent they attract and the depth of the Los Angeles literary community I witness. Plus I used to live not far from WeHo and despite coming now from the vastly-superior-and-way-too-proud-of-it Northern part of the state, I'm quite fond of Los Angeles. A few days in Sunset traffic washed down with a Diddy Riese ice cream sandwich feels like a homecoming. 

Many thanks to my friend Tyson Cornell, chief of the amazing Rare Bird Literary Promotions (who is turning literary events into rock concerts to great effect) who recommended and Corey Ruskin, the big boss at the Book Fair, who invited me. 

If you're in the neighborhood, look for a very midwestern looking fellow in glasses. I'm on at noon and my panel is called "The Help." 

Say hi.
