As I mentioned elsewhere, I'm booked to appear at the Port Eliot Festival in a couple of weeks, alongside Rob Lewis. We're supposed to do something other than a reading, something creative or off-the-wall, or something. Anyway, we (OK, Rob) thought up a great idea:
~ NOIR ACADEMY ~
WIN!
Books
Whiskey
Films
Cigarettes
Drugs
and
A VAGUE FEELING Of Lingering DOOM
because remember:
EVERYBODY LOSES IN THE END
Two crime authors - Charlie Williams (Deadfolk, Fags and Lager) and Robert Lewis (The Last Llanelli Train) host a basic training and evaluation session for NOIR BUFFS and RANK AMATEURS alike. Including:
How to TALK NOIR
Basic SNEERING
DRINKS and foodstuffs to avoid
Living under a VOICE-OVER
Noir CAREERS
Noir HOLIDAYS
Cinematic, real life and literary crime TRIVIA
and
MUCH MORE
Drunks welcome. No gats.
Sponsored by: Serpent's Tail, Penderyn Whiskey, I don't know, some other people we can blag.
That's not the definitive flyer, but it's close. Any suggestions, please let me know! What other apect of noir could we examine, dissect, and totally bastardise?

"What about some noir sex?"
Is that a proposition? Hey, you've given me another idea - noir chat up lines.
