[OPLINLIST] Author Events in Columbus This Weekend

[Mackenzie Betts]

Library staff,

I have a shameless plug for my husband, Matt Betts. His first book is being
introduced this weekend by the publisher, Raw Dog Screaming Press
(oddmenoutnovel.com). The publisher has been around for 10 years but they
are launching a Science Fiction imprint called Dog Star Books. They have a
number of authors coming to Columbus this weekend for the launch. Several of
the horror and science fiction authors will do a reading at Bexley Public
Library on Saturday, from 4-5:30 in addition to events at Kafe Kerouac,
