Are you a science fiction fan? Are you near the Austin area? Do you want to hear the best Spurs fan/sci-fi writer read his work? Well, do we have an event for you.

Eugene "E.J." Fischer will be reading from his novella "The New Mother" -- available in this month's issue of Asimov's Science Fiction -- at Malvern Books in Austin, Texas this Saturday. If you're in the Austin area and enjoy great science fiction, you should check it out! It's at:

Malvern Books
613 West 29th Street
Austin, TX 78705

From 7-8:00pm this Saturday (April 4th). Full details here.

You may recall E.J. as a major Spurs fan and expert from past Boxscore Geeks shows! I assure you his writing abilities match his Spurs knowledge. In fact, for super zealous fans, E.J. and I recorded a two-hour conversation about his science-fiction writing and a myriad of other subjects. We even talk the Spurs a little (link with timecode here) I'll be editing and getting notes up for it this weekend, but enjoy a sneak peak if you're inclined. Again, if you're in the Austin area, it's worth your time to hear E.J. read.
