Hello, everyone and welcome back. With summer winding down and the Labor Day weekend fast approaching, here is a quick update on things. I took a break from writing for most of the summer to get involved with other activities. A break often helps stimulate new creativity and prevents a writer from burning out.

I have accepted an invitation to appear at Farpoint SciFi convention on February 7th to the 9th in Pikesville, Maryland at the DoubleTree Hotel. Pikesville is a short distance from the old location in Hunt Valley for those unfamiliar with the area.

I also received invitations to appear at Albacon (Albany, NY) and PhilCon (Cherry Hill, NJ). Unfortunately, I can’t make the Albacon dates and had to decline. I am still undecided on PhilCon as I may have other commitments. I do expect to have more appearances though, so keep checking for new additions.

Currently, I am working on the Night Creeps 2 screenplay, an unexpected task that popped up. I have the first draft from previously and it has become a priority. I have been sketching out the premise for a Space Truckers 3 novel while also developing the plots for another Space Truckers screenplay, based on the second half of the Space Truckers 2 novel. It’s become a bit of a juggling act.

Hardbacks for my novels should be available now in addition to the softbacks and audiobooks. With the Ingram’s problem resolved, my books should be available again both nationally and internationally. Still no update on the potential screenplay sales. Things move slow in that business, especially after a quick start and significant interest. I guess time will tell.

Join me again soon for more updates and appearances. Take care, everyone, and enjoy the remainder of your summer.
