What’s the PHILLY LIARS CLUB?
MABERRY: The Philly Liars Club is a group of thirteen professional writers of different kinds who fell in together to do readings, talks, workshops, and have some fun. The name comes from the fact that we ‘make stuff up for a living’. The current line-up includes L. A. Banks (New York Times best-selling author of paranormal thrillers and spooky romances); Gregory Frost (fantasy author); William Lashner (NY Times bestselling author of legal thrillers); Laura Schrock (Emmy Award-winning TV producer and scriptwriter and co-creator for ON THE SLAB for ABC/Disney); Jon McGoran (author of several forensics thrillers for Penguin as D H Dublin); Kelly Simmons (women’s contemporary fiction author); Ed Pettit (book reviewer and renowned expert on Edgar Allen Poe); Dennis Tafoya (celebrated crime writer); Don Lafferty (publicist, social media guru, and magazine feature writer), Merry Jones (mystery novelist), Keith Strunk (actor, playwright, historian and children’s storyteller), and me.
