Preparing for a Literary Reading at the Writers' Program UCLA Extension

I'm getting ready for a literary reading tonight, dear Readers.  

I'll be reading from a novel excerpt, "The Incident" that first appeared in the Philippine Graphic.  The excerpt is part of my third novel, a literary mystery, titled "Dead Priest in the Creek."

I'm looking for a literary agent to market this novel, by the way!

Here's what writer-professor Brian Roley says about it:

"I’ll just say here that it’s a terrific book. I’m not just saying that. This is one of the books I’ve long wanted to have written—a crime novel set in the Philippines that seamlessly brings in US colonial history in a way that would be interesting to both US and Philippine audiences, and with engrossing characters. Congratulations." ~ by Brian Roley, Author, Professor
