Dispatches from the City of Angels

I'm a mystery writer living in and writing about Los Angeles. You can catch my short story, "Running Venice," in the new anthology LAndmarked for Murder. Look for it in bookstores and on Amazon.com now. In the meantime, feel free to poke around. Over at my website you can find even more blog entries than I could fit here, as well as a few other ramblings. Enjoy and come back often.

Most Recent Twitters:
A 3-foot long alligator was found walking down the middle of the street in Venice Beach this morning. I love L.A.

In case you were wondering, it is very difficult to get a hummingbird out of your house. They are irrational and prone to hysterics.


L.A. Finds:
The Nickel Diner on Main between 5th and 6th is a made-to-look-old, throwback of a place that melds into the old downtown and is, at the same time, part of the renaissance. They serve their burgers medium, their soda in bottles and offer all they can to locals in need.


Flickr Updates:
The second Thursday of every month is the Downtown Art Walk. The galleries stay open late, the restaurants are packed, bands perform on the streets. God, I love L.A.

What I Talk About When I Talk About Running

We’re launching this baby!

Don’t forget the launch party for “LAndmarked for Murder” is tomorrow!

The Mystery Bookstore in Westwood has been kind enough to host a little shindig for the anthology, to give it a proper send-off into the world. And you’re invited.

Details:
Mystery Bookstore
1036-C Broxton
West LA, Calif.
October 21, 2006
5:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.

Come on by, pick up a book, get it signed by a whole slew of the authors and editors, including me! And did I mention there will be booze? Wine and maybe even champagne to go along with the edible nibbles set out for your enjoyment. Come early before they’re gone!
