The Worlds of Michael D'Ambrosio

Yes, that’s me. A work in progress. Lots going on in my life, keeping me going at the speed of light. Coming up are three fantastic conventions where I hope to see many of you. First, on May 29th to the 31st, Fan Expo (formerly Wizard World) will be at the Philadelphia Convention Center in downtown Philly. I do have a table at A114 in the artist area.

A few weeks later, I have SciFiValleyCon in Altoona, PA on June 12-14 at the Blair County Convention Center. I love this convention and the people there. You can find me at my table at P16. And then a month later, I’ll be in Lancaster, PA for Shore Leave at the convention center on Rt. 30. A lot of friends to be found here as well.

Still fleshing out the details for Space Truckers 3 and where I want to go with it. I have to follow up 1 and 2 with something really good so it’s taking me a bit longer to get this project going. On the movie front, I’m stuck in mud with something big tied up in a transactional mess. Once that clears, I hope to have some good news to share with all of you. Join me again soon as I continue down that long and winding road to something great.

Hello, everyone! Time to get out of those winter doldrums and have some fun. Last week, I participated in the annual Delco Horror Haven Book Fair in Media, Pa. The fair had a great turnout and, as usual, the ladies behind it (Lisa, Karen and Tammy) did an outstanding job. Even better, I received their Michael Kmat Memorial Award for 2026. I was at a loss for words and all I could think is that I’m a horror-ble person! I hope you got that little pun. In September, they host a weekend-long event called the Delco Horror Invasion that includes a film festival that’s one to die for. I know, another pun. Hey, spring’s a happy time of year!

I hope to see many of you at the upcoming FanExpo at the Philadelphia Convention Center. This is a massive convention that never disappoints. In June, I’ll be in Altoona again for SciFiValleyCon – another outstanding convention. This convention runs twice a year and has grown so much from the first time I attended several years ago. I have so many fans there that I can’t pass on it. In July I will be in Lancaster for Shore Leave. This convention has grown so much from it’s early years as well. The dates and locations for these cons are listed in my upcoming appearances. I haven’t committed to the fall yet for appearances but should have some decisions on that in a month or two.

Things are quiet on the movie front as several significant events are on hold due to business transactions by the film companies. I’m eager to share the news with you but can’t say anything yet. Hopefully soon. I’m working the outline for a Space Truckers 3 for which I hoped to be further along. Join me again soon for an update on my projects or at one of the upcoming conventions.

My publisher issues have been resolved so my books are available once more. Thanks to Brittany at Ingram’s, we were able to make this a quick and smooth transition. That’s a ig deal for me as I have Monstermania in two weeks (Nov21-23) in Oaks, Pa.

I’m currently working on detials for next year’s appearances. I should be at SciFiValleyCon once again on June 12-14 in Altoona, PA. I’m having too much fun at this convention to miss it. Also, I’m waiting for a table commitment from FanExpo in Philadelphia on May 29-31. I’ve had issues with a table the last two years due to an application mixup (booth instead of table) by their people and that bumped me off the returning list last year. Also, look for me to return to Shore Leave in Lancaster, PA on July 10-12. Can’t wait for these events. I’m still looking for opportunities to attend other conventions but time and finances can be a drag. I’d love to do all of the conventions but for now, I’ll do what I can. Join me again for new updates on my projects.

Welcome back everyone. I had another great weekend at SciFiValleyCon in Altoona with a lot of fun friends and fans. Next stop is Monstermania in Oaks, PA on November 21st to the 23rd. It’s been a crazy week as I just learned that my publisher Quantum Discovery is suddenly out of business. No idea that was coming. Now, I have my hands full trying to recover from this without incurring a long delay. I’ve been in touch with Ingram’s and I’m waiting for a decision on what I can do without Quantum to approve a transfer of book files.

Still waiting for several decisions on my screenplay projects. One, in particular, is really exciting. Unfortunately, I can’t say more on that yet. Not much more to say right now so check back soon.

Welcome back, everyone. Thanks to all who came out to the recent events. We’ve been lucky with great weather and good people. I will be attending SciFiValleyCon in Altoona on Octber 17-19 and hope to see many of you from June again. On November 21-22, I’ll be at Monstermania in Oaks, PA. I hope to see many of my local fans & friends there. On December 7th from 1 to 5, I’ll be at Barnes & Noble in Lawrence Park for a book signing. This is a great store in an ideal location so, if you are local, come on in. I haven’t committed to anything new for next year as of yet. Too many things going on for me right now that require my time and constant monitoring.

Things are quiet on the movie front right now and, despite positive commitments, nothing is etched in stone. In today’s world, contracts aren’t even a guarantee. Hopefully that’s not an issue but time will tell. I hope to have more on my projects soon so check back and see what’s happening.
