SUMMARY:Virtual - Horror Writer Robert Ottone in conversation with Lauren Bolger
DESCRIPTION:We can’t wait to celebrate the release of Amityville Awakens with horror author Robert Ottone! The book will have just come out on October 6th so we’ll make sure we don’t run into spoilers but we’re sure there will be plenty to chat about. Robert is joined by Lauren Bolger for a conversation about his new book\, his process\, and whatever other horror-ific things they’d like to chat about. We hope you can join us for this fun discussion. \n\n\n\nClick HERE to register. \n\n\n\nFor questions\, contact Cal in Reference and Adult Services at (413) 420-8106. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRobert P. Ottone is the Bram Stoker Award-winning author of The Triangle and is also the best-selling author of Curse of the Cob Man\, The Sleepy Hollow Gang\, The Vile Thing We Created and Nocturnal Creatures. His short fiction has been collected in Wrapped in Plastic and Other Sweet Nothings as well as Her Infernal Name & Other Nightmares. ​ \n\n\n\nLauren has this to say about herself: I’m a Chicago chapter member of the Horror Writers Association\, an avid music fan. I live in a town you’ve never heard of with my husband\, kids and cats. \n\n\n\nThank you to the Friends of Ashland Public Library for making this program available to Holyoke patrons!
