Room 3181 – Friday Evening (9 to 11 pm). Michael Haynes will be celebrating the release of his debut short-fiction collection, At the Intersection of Love and Death, with a party in Room 3181 from 9 to 11 PM. His collection includes over two dozen stories spanning the speculative fiction genres, dealing with love, death, and the places where those experiences intersect. There will be whiskey (since characters in several of his stories drink whiskey), other beverages, and light munchies (none of which show up in his stories which calls into question his rationale for the whiskey).
