by Kevin Howell -- Publishers Weekly, 4/9/2008 7:54:00 AMIn an effort to beef up Sunday activities at this year’s BookExpo America—and thwart the plans of those hoping to avoid a Red Eye plane trip out of Los Angeles on BEA’s final day—convention officials announced today that Dean Koontz (above left) and Michael Connelly (above right) will participate in a newly added program called “Meet the Bestsellers,” which will take place on Sunday, June 1, from noon until 2 p.m. The event will offer a free boxed lunch to all attendees.
Koontz and Connelly will be interviewed by USA Today’s book critic Carol Memmott, followed by a short Q&A with the audience and an autographing session.
