After the LA Times Festival of Books last weekend, and the kickoff events for the Pasadena Lit Fest yesterday, I think it's time to bring back the live events.

@RAforAll @Gabino_Iglesias @ChuckWendig @JonathanMaberry That was an incredible show. Glad you have such strong and fond memories of it!

We'll see you in 2021 with more events! Happy holidays!
