Gabriel Cohen's Launch Party for The Graving Dock
The yacht Manhattan was the site of a very unique book launch party. We were treated to a one and a half hour tour of the harbor tonight. The rain held off and there was just enough fog to give the evening an added element of mystery.
Gabriel Cohen's latest book, The Graving Dock
Reed Farrel Coleman helped out by doing a series of reading from the book. Reed is the author of the Moe Praeger series of mysteries which are also set in NYC.

We interupt Alaska for... Dave White!
Dave hosted a standing room only event at Borders in Wayne, NJ. Not only did he entertain the crowd with his reading and trivia contest, he also sold out all the copies of his book that Borders had on hand. And there were still folks looking to buy more. Not bad for a first book.
When One Man Dies
Dave seemed to have a never-ending line of folks wanting to get their books signed. Even when the books ran out, people stayed in line for a chance to chat with Dave.
Pat Lambe, fellow mystery writer, was in attendance.

Girls Night Out
Nicola Kraus, Emma McLaughlin, Sarah Mlynowski, and Lauren Henderson read from their Girls Night Out short stories last night. It was a fantastic reading. Sarah co-edited the collection, and all the author and editor royalties go to the children's charities War Child and No Strings. A definite must-read, and as Sarah Mlynowski says you get "that just-drank-a-hot-cup-of-coffee, warm fuzzy feeling from doing a good deed."

San Francisco Noir reading at Edinburgh Castle
While I was in San Francisco I had the chance to go to a great reading at the Edinburgh Castle Pub. The funny thing about it is that I was in San Francisco for the annual meeting of the American Geophysical Union and this pub is one of the favorite hangouts of the geophysicists. I wasn't familiar with the reading series that is held there until now. Its a fantastic series with lots of great authors. This night several of the writers from the Akashic San Francisco Noir collection read from their works. The writers featured in this picture are David Corbett, Peter Maravelis (editor), Michelle Tea, John Longhi, and David Henry Sterry. Sin Siracco also read but isn't in the picture.

Elizabeth Kostova, author of The Historian
The Historian has been getting a lot of buzz lately. Its a retelling of the Dracula story and there are three separate story lines - 1930, 1950, and 1972. I haven't had a chance to read it myself yet, but it sounds intriguing.

Sarah and I went to Joseph Kanon's signing tonight. Wish I could have made it to Jim Fusilli's as well but they were 80 blocks apart and at the same time.

Caleb Carr
Went to Caleb Carr's signing tonight. I hadn't heard him speak before and was very impressed. Picked up a copy of the Italian Secretary. I'll have to dig out my copy of The Alienist. I must be one of the few people who haven't read it.
