Key West author events
OK, it's getting pretty cold up where you are, well it probably is if you're not in or close to the tropics.
On Dec. 7, 2-5 pm, a group signing of Key West and South Florida authors will be held at the Smokin' Tuna Saloon, 4 Charles St., off the 200 block of Duval.
There will be 30+ authors from all genres, mystery, YA, memoires, etc.
So if you're in need of an excuse to escape the cold and visit Key West, here's one.
Next year, for you that like to plan ahead, on June 13-14, the inaugural Mystery Writers Key West Fest, will be held on the island, featuring a meet-and-greet the authors Friday evening, with the mayor proclaiming it Mystery Writers Weekend in KW and maybe even a bar stroll.
Saturday morning there will be two panels of writers and three panels that afternoon, with local law enforcement officials on the last one.
There's a sunset cruise aboard the Fury planned and a noir movie at the Tropic Cinema, that is included in the festival price.
A lot happening and more being added. The website, mysterywriterskeywestfest.com should be up a running any day, but it continues to be a work in progress.
The Double Tree/Grand Key Hotel has set aside a block of rooms at a KW discounted price.
Hope to see you in Key West.
