Now, don’t get us wrong, we love us some David Goodis ‚Äî the Port Richmond-born mid-century noir writer most famous for Shoot The Piano Player. But imagine our surprise when we found City Paper editor Duane Swierczynski‘s new blog that chronicles his other life as a… crime novelist! And a crime novelist superfan of other crime novelists at that. To wit: Next January 5-7, Swierczynski is one of the brains behind Goodiscon, which we imagine to be a lot like Thrilladelphia except catering more to guys who collect paperbacks and Time Life World War II books in their garages. Hey, man, don’t look at me that way: It takes all kinds.
