The Worlds of Michael D'Ambrosio

Just completed arrangements to join the crew at Sci-Fi ValleyCon in Altoona, Pa. on June 27th to the 29th. This will be my first appearance at the convention and I’ve heard great things about them. I’m also making my final preparations for Central Pennsylvania Comicon as well. I have some exciting panels scheduled over the weekend of April 5th and 6th. At noon on the 5th, I’m doing ‘New Writers – How to Market and Promote Yourself. Later that day at four o’clock, I’m doing ‘Things to know before you write the screenplay’. On Sunday, April 6th, I have ‘Pirates and Science Fiction – Why We Love Them’. These are panels I’ve done in the past and have always been a lot of fun.
Don’t forget, in May, I’ll be at LepreCon in Mesa, AZ and BaltiCon as well. I enjoy flip-flopping all over the country and meeting lots of new fans. This is your opportunity to get your first look at my new novel, Princess Pain. She’s a real heart-stopper.

Wow, what a fantastic weekend I had at MidsouthCon. There were so many good things that happened this weekend that left me amazed. For one, I was awed by the number of new fans who came by and purchased copies of all my books. The number of fans at the convention impressed me as well. When the dealers’ room closed at 2:00 on Sunday, it was still crowded with customers! The convention boasted an all-star lineup with a number of popular writers including Steve Zimmer, Kim Richardson, Georgia Jones, and many others. Midsouthcon has an outstanding program along with workshops and the authors who lead them. I plan on returning next year to the Hilton East in Memphis for MidsouthCon 33. If you can travel to the Memphis area, you should get to this con. It’s well worth it.
In a few weeks, I’ll be at the new Central Pennsylvania Comicon in Carlisle, Pa. just outside Harrisburg. Look for me on four exciting panels on Saturday and one on Sunday on a variety of topics. Then come by my table for some friendly conversation and check out my collection of books. The convention website can be found at http://www.centralpacomiccon.com for more information.
Coming shortly after, I’ll have details on LepreCon in Mesa, AZ and BaltiCon in Hunt Valley, MD. Join me again soon for more information on upcoming cons and appearances.

I’d like to thank Shilough and the Doylestown Book Shop for being the latest book store to carry my latest novel Princess Pain. I was very impressed with the store and the staff were so pleasant. If you are in the Doylestown area, I highly recommend a visit.
