Hey all, I just learned that on 2021-09-09T17:00:00Z there will be an event (youtube live stream) featuring Murata Sayaka! She will read from her book コンビニ人間 and there will be a discussion with a Japanology professor from Trier, Germany.
Drawback: It’s a German-Japanese literature event where Murata will speak Japanese and it will be translated into German. So I guess it will probably make most sense to participate if you can either understand German, or if your Japanese is good enough to follow along, but of course ymmv
