One of the great things about my The Shadow Box book tour in the Zoom era is that I get to invite you to my favorite libraries, bookstores, and towns. Essex CT is beautiful romantic, literary, rich with US history—particularly maritime, and Essex Library will be hosting a virtual event on Sunday, March 14th, at 1 pm. I will be in conversation with wonderful Juliet Grames. Juliet is the author of The Seven Or Eight Deaths Of Stella Fortuna, which has been translated into ten languages. A book editor by day, she is also Associate Publisher at Soho Press, where she curates the critically acclaimed Soho Crime imprint.
Connecticut River Museum
This photo shows the Connecticut River Museum at sunset. When I was young, before it was a museum, we knew it only as Steamboat Dock, and one post-Griswold Inn night I danced in the headlights of an old Peugeot, right there on the dock. I might even tell that story on Sunday. I have so many tales of Essex, and writing, and setting THE SHADOW BOX on the Connecticut Shoreline, and I can’t wait to share them with you.
Here is the link for Zoom registration. Hope to see you Sunday! https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZApfuyhpzkuG9Zpr51CcqJkXUfXOzWIAXpn
