A Hollywood story

The President lands in LA.

Author Xander Beattie in conversation with the writer Steven Tagle.

On 5 December, we launched the Collectable Pocket Hardback edition of The President in LA where the novel’s author Xander Beattie had a cosy (literal!) fireside chat with the marvellous poet and writer Steven Tagle (we’ll link to an edit of the convo between the two when it’s published). There was much conviviality (and pizza!) to be had.

We’re grateful to all who joined us in giving The President such a warm SoCal welcome (especially the event’s hosts, Trev and Shane) — and to Steven for being a terrific and thoughtful interlocutor.
