Dark & Deadly: Noir, Crime and Mystery

An afternoon of dark and deadly crime is coming your way!!!  Gar Anthony Haywood and Brett Battles will tell all… what motivates them to write, why they put everything they've got on the page, how authors are dealing with this upside world of publishing, and more.

Gar Anthony Haywood also writes as Ray Shannon. He has won the Shamus and Anthony Awards for his mystery fiction. He writes stand-alone novels and short-stories as well as series. He has also written for the Los Angeles Times and the New York Times, written scripts for television drama series (e.g. New York Undercover and the District) and Movies of the Week for ABC. 

Brett Battles was born and raised in southern California. His parents, avid readers, instilled the love of books in him early on.  Though he still makes California his home, he has traveled extensively to such destinations as Ho Chi Minh City, Berlin, Singapore, London, Paris, and Bangkok, all of which play parts in his current and upcoming Jonathan Quinn thrillers.
