Okay, okay, I know. This page is occasionally out-of-date, but we’re doing much much better than we used to. If you’ve got a relevant event — a convention, a fan event, a Noir-at-the-Bar, a mystery-writing course or something — coming up, tell me… Or at least put me on your mailing list, if you’re organized enough to have one. If your event is not listed here, it might not be my fault.
Sorry, authors, I’m not looking for individual book signings — that way would lead to madness. And before you book rooms, rent cars, book flights, saddle your horse or anything, it’s best to check directly with the event’s organizers for any updates. (Now if only they’d update their own web sites!)

FURTHER INVESTIGATION
- NOIR AT THE BARS
Frustratingly, the minds behind the various Noirs at the Bar are hard to pin down, but allegedly these are the correct links. For now… - Sisters in Crime: Conferences, Events & Tradeshows
The best listing I’ve found for general mystery events. - The Private Eye Writers Bulletin Board
The word on the street is…
Is your event not listed? Don’t be afraid — just call me…
