Boardman Street,Youngstown, OH.

An open mic will follow Michael's reading. We welcome original poetry and prose (under five minutes).

This BYOB event is free and open to the public.

"Necropolis," the result of a lifetime's love for speculative and crime fiction, is Michael's first novel. In addition to his new career as a novelist, Michael has written, acted and directed in theater, television and film in New York, Los Angeles, Louisville, Cleveland and other venues across the country.

Of Michael's first novel, author David Oppegaard writes, "Unsettling and eerie, Necropolis gives us a shadowy near future where the line between life and death has blurred and a past wickedness still echoes in the present, begging to be avenged. Dempsey writes with great nerve and imagination and will keep you reading long past midnight."
