The Worlds of Michael D'Ambrosio

Hello, everyone and welcome back. Lots to tell you now that the virus nightmare appears to be over. First of all, my list of appearances begins with Farpoint in February and then RavenCon in April. I’ll also be appearing at Wizard World/FanExpo in Oaks, PA in April as well. I will have more details on those later. It feels like its been ages since my last convention and I am anxious to see friends and fans again. Let’s hope the virus is behind us and things creep back to normal.

Next on my list is my latest novel, SPACE TRUCKERS: ADVENTURES OF THE BLUE EAGLE. The virus has complicated things especially when it comes to small press and independent publishers. Newman Springs was excited by the manuscript and as a result, I’ve elected to go with them as the publisher for my new series. Coincidentally, I’ve been working with Open Gate Entertainment on the development process of my script SPACE TRUCKERS. It’s been fun being part of that process and learning what is required. The story board they provided is exceptional. Unfortunately, you’ll have to wait a bit to see that. This is a big step in the direction of a SPACE TRUCKERS movie. As I begin the second book in the series, the big question is how to write the sequel to the feature script. I’ve discussed this with the development people at Open Gate and we are leaning toward a series of 1 hour episodes if SPACE TRUCKERS makes it to the big screen. Their thoughts are: So long as I have the material to write a series versus another feature (movie) script, then it makes sense to go in that direction. This is critical to the way I structure the new story. Check back soon for more on my progress and appearances. Have a safe and happy summer.
