Another month down and another on the horizon. Publisher's Weekly was kind enough to feature me among ten first authors in this month's print issue. http://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/authors/profiles/article/47872-first-fiction-2011-frank-bill-great-writing-is-no-crime.html
The web version should go up at the end of the month. Last month I was interviewed by them and it's up right here:

And next month, the first three stories from Crimes in Southern Indiana, The Hill Clan Trilogy, will be in PLAYBOY!! Let me say this, the art work is top notch. And the editor was great to work with. For me, I've said this before and I'll say it again, working with editors is a blast. I dig their input.
My first reading will be here: http://carmichaelsbookstore.com/event/2011/09/10/month September 7th, at 7pm. The release party will be September 10th in Corydon, Indiana at Beef O'Brady's. Good friends Donald Ray Pollock, Scott Phillips, Kyle Minor, Jed Ayres, Matthew McBride and Aaron Morales, to name a few who will be in attendance. The following week I'll be in St. Louis for Bouchercon.
Don's new book will be out next week: http://www.amazon.com/Devil-All-Time-Donald-Pollock/dp/038553504X/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1310314776&sr=1-2
And from the reviews he's gotten in ELLE Magazine and ESQUIRE, it's gonna kick ass!
Scott Phillips will have new book out in August: http://www.amazon.com/Adjustment-Scott-Phillips/dp/1582437300/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1310314884&sr=1-1
And the review he got over at the Publisher's Weekly website is nothing short of great and brutal.
On September 29th, I'll be in Indy reading at the Irving Theater. Reading starts at 7:30 pm. http://www.attheirving.com/ It hasn't been posted on their site yet, but when it goes live, I'll be sure to re-post it here along with any other readings I'll be doing.

Great stuff, man. Haven't bought a Playboy in a while (ha!) but I'll have to make an exception next month. Looking forward to getting my copy of Crimes signed at Bouchercon.
