The Worlds of Michael D'Ambrosio

Hello, everyone. I’ve just committed to Roc-Con on September 24th at the Main Street Armory. I’ve added their link below for those of you who’d like to check it out. it’s a one day convention full of exciting programs, dealers and guests. I’ve already arranged for a table in Artist Alley so for those of you in the area, make sure you stop by.
I’ve had a number of requests lately from producers interested in seeing The Christmas Solution and Princess Pain. Hopefully one or both of these pans out into a deal. Stay tuned for more details as they come.

I’d like to thank everyone at LunaCon for a wonderful time. I did pretty well with book sales, some were new fans while others were adding to their existing FT or Space Frontiers collection. The panels were well attended and the fans were great. It was sad to hear from so many who are out of work or have been cut back and struggling to make ends meet. My prayers are with you. We keep hearing about how the economy is improving but high numbers of our people still suffer. Somewhere there’s a disconnect. Let’s hope for better days ahead.

My next stop is in Phoenix for LepreCon on May 6-8th. I also just added a signing at Bard’s Books on 7th St. in Phoenix as well for Thursday, May 5th from 3:30-5:30 p.m.

Memorial Day weekend, I’ll be at BaltiCon. This will be my first appearance there in a few years. I have a lot of friends and fans there so this should be lots of fun. As usual, I will have a table in the dealers’ room for both conventions. I’ve heard that there may be problems with ebook purchases for Fractured Time and Twisted Fate through Amazon. Apparently, there is some confusion because there was originally another publisher of the books who is now defunct. You can still go to my publisher’s site by selecting “Buy Now” on my site under each novel. There you will find the books readily available in ebook. Thank you again for joining me and I’m looking forward to seeing many of you in May. Come back soon to see what’s new in The Worlds of Michael D’Ambrosio.

Coming up on March 18th is LunaCon in NY. I’m looking forward to seeing a lot of my friends who are writers and vendors at the convention. It looks like the weather should be decent for the ride up from Philly. Two years ago I rode up in an ice storm. What an experience that was.
I received an email from a reader named Conrade who paid me quite a compliment. Here is a part of what he wrote: “I’ve never seen or read a blend of magic, fantasy, science fiction and horror like in Twisted Fate.” This was exactly what I hoped to accomplish and it’s really fulfilling to see it spelled out in a reader’s feedback. For the whole comment, see the bottom entry on “fan feedback”. Conrade, I hope to keep you “spellbound” with this mix as I continue to write. Thank you.
I will have a table in the dealers’ room at LunaCon and I’ll be doing panels as well. Come on by and chat if you are there. I enjoy meeting both fans and friends.
I’ve heard that Fractured Time and Twisted Fate may not be available yet on Kindle. Night Creeps and Fractured Time are. Those other two are coming shortly. I’m finally making progress on The Galaxy of the Damned. There is a whole lot of action and subplots that occur in this final novel of the Space Frontiers series. The toughest part of this novel is the sequencing. I really want this to be the best of my novels. Join me again for more updates.

Welcome back, everyone! I just received news from my publisher at AZ Publishing that the Fractured Time Trilogy and Night Creeps are now available on Kindle. The link in the ‘novels’ section for each novel from AZ takes you to my publisher’s website where you can easily order the Kindle version.
I’d like to thank everyone who purchased books from me at Connooga. I was very pleased with the support from regular readers and also many new readers. I also had an opportunity to spend some time with several of my literary friends including D.A. Adams, Andy Deane (Bella Morte), Steve Zimmer, Sean Taylor, Ed Crandell and a few others. I also had some fun talking with some of the Chattanooga Rollergirls as well. They are a great group that skate for a good cause. I also had a chance to speak with a class actor Brian Van Camp about making movies and what the actors go through. I’m looking forward to seeing all of them at Fandomfest in July at Louisville.
My next stop is LunaCon in Rye, NY. Don’t go far because you never know what’s going on in my worlds. Thanks again for joining me.

This weekend is Connooga and the start of another year of conventions. I’ve been busy with submissions for several screenplays and there is quite a bit of interest in three of them right now. We’ll see if anything materializes. I’m making progress with Galaxy of the Damned, the final book in the Space Frontiers series, and the ending promises to be one shocking finish to an already explosive series. I expect to add several appearances in Orlando FL, Palm Springs CA, and a few other locations along the way.
I met a movie pro recently who read a copy of The Eye of Icarus and her response was “why isn’t this a movie?” My reply was “you tell me.” She promises to push the script to several of her contacts and co-workers. There is so much involved in selling ascript that it’s never that simple. Please come back for more details and appearance information in a few weeks. For those of you attending the Connooga convention, come on by for a chat, a book or a drink. Take care everyone.
