Steve Hodel and Lou Boxer NoirCon 2014      Author presenting PowerPoint Talk to NoirCon attendees.

In 2014 I was privileged  to be invited to speak at the NoirCon Conference in Philadelphia, PA. (See original post HERE.)

A few months back Lou Boxer, the organizer of all things NOIRCON sent out a request for stories to be included in NoirCon’s online Journal, “Retreats From Oblivion.” 

In 2016 I had written a true-crime short story from my old Hollywood Homicide days, which was included as a chapter in the book, Los Angeles in the 1970s: Weird Scenes Inside the Goldmine (Rare Bird Books 2016) edited by David Kukoff.  In that publication my story had to be edited down due to space limitations.

I submitted the full story to Lou Boxer and he has posted it on NOIRCON’S JOURNAL, “Retreats From Oblivion.”  Thanks Lou, and best to all of you at NOIRCON.
