Sunday quick update: events today, Wednesday, Thursday, ...

Posted on 2012-09-09 at 14:10 by montsamu

Two events today (Sunday, September 9):

And this kicks off in earnest a pretty crowded mid and late September (see the recent newsletter for all the goodies), with events Wednesday and Thursday, and The Escapist Expo on Friday through Sunday, leading into next week's craziness with both Neil Gaiman and Junot Diaz coming to the area on the same day. One update: online sails for The Unchained Tour (including Gaiman) show Chapel Hill's show as sold out; a limited amount of tickets may still be available at Flyleaf Books directly.
