Can't believe this is just a week away!

ORYCON 36 brings Sci-Fi/Fantasy Convention to PDX

If you like Sci-Fiction and/or Fantasy  this is probably just the thing for you. Several local, indie authors will have their work available at the NIWA booth. The featured author-speaker this year is the writer of Logan's Run. There is cosplay, sci-fi and fantasy collectibles and other stuff to buy (including books), art, gaming, speakers and so much more. If the Sci-Fi/Fantasy world is your thing you might want to check it out. Just sayin'. For more info click here.

Now Booking Summer Signings, Readings, Etc.

I'm beginning to put together my summer appearance schedule. I don't intend to do a lot of signings, but I'm open to readings and speaking engagements (or radio shows) which I will book on a first come first served basis. I'm always open to guest blog or podcast. With that said...

The season kicks off with the BOOK LAUNCH PARTY for THE AMISH vs. THE ZOMBIES at Interstellar Overdrive bookstore on June 21. The bookstore is located in Hazel Dell, Wash.

The time and details will be announced soon. I do know that I'll be reading from and signing the new book, as well as my other titles, that day.

I will also be signing at Jacobsen's Books & More in Hillsboro, Ore. on July 26 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. 

At this time this is all I have booked and a small "tour" is not something I've ruled out if the stops should come together to make that possible in August.

Maybe I'll Read a Little Something from the New Book

Creatures from the BOOK Lagoon

An image from the 1954 Universal movie "Creature from the Black Lagoon."

Here's an event you might want to catch 3-5 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 21 at Latte Da Coffee House and Wine Bar (205 E. 39th St., Vancouver, Wash.).

I'll be reading from my new book at the event and have books for purchase.

The "Creatures from the Book Lagoon" event will feature book and poetry reading, plus there will be authors to meet and mingle with and you can browse and purchase published works.
