CANCELED Bouchercon 2024 - Nashville, TN

(Sadly, I had to cancel my appearance at Bouchercon this year due to catching COVID the week before. I’m fine and now testing positive, but it was too close to the convention for me to feel safe about going–the last thing I’d ever want to do is get any conference attendees sick, or get rebound COVID and have to spend my conference in a hotel room. Here’s looking to attending Bouchercon 2025!)
I’ll be at Bouchercon this year in Nashville and will be on the dark academia panel “Another Brick in the Wall” with Lauren Nossett, Nova Jacobs, Frankie Bailey, and RJ Jacobs, moderated by Rodger Carlyle.
