Tomorrow, I'll be at the Utah Humanities Book Festival doing a reading from The Serpent's Head (or Andy Wilson, Boy Super-Genius) and then answering questions about writing and publishing.
I'd love to see you all there.
It's at the Downtown Salt Lake City Library and I'll be speaking in the 4th floor conference room at noon. Some of my books will also be around and on sale.
Here's their official write-up:
The City Library will play host to authors Bryan Young, Barry Deutsch, and Matthew Kirby.
