Wow…

DragonCon…

What a gas… I’m still recovering.

We got back to St. Petersburg at about 1:00AM Tuesday, and I had to go to work in six hours, so sleep has been a short commodity of late. I took a bunch of pictures of the fantastic costumes, and should have them up soon, but the real bonus of the trip was the great people I got to socialize with.

Tracy Akers, Michelle Weston and Sandy Lender, three great fantasy authors, shared drinks and tales of woe and triumph with us. Please visit their sites, they are very special and talented, and I hold them in the highest regard.

My dear friend Jana Oliver dropped by on a break from the Dragon Moon Press table and we talked about all the shake ups in Canadian Publishing… It seems things are just as crazy up there as they are down here. She was very excited to announce that the sequel to Sojourn will be out in October! WoooHoo!

As usual, I poked around relatively little, being welded to the dealer’s table. It was nice to have quite a few return customers, and some begging me to write faster, more and delve into the sequels for Weapon of Flesh and Soul for Tsing, both of which I have already outlined sequels for.

I got the opportunity to meet a fellow Herscher Project writer, Gail Martin, who is very excited about her upcoming release, The Summoner. She is published through Solaris, and this is her debut release. Way to go, Gail!

We took a lot of pictures, as usual, and I’ll have them up on the gallery as soon as I have the time to post them. A lot going on, in preparation for Viable Paradise, and Necronomicon in three weeks… Yikes…

Gotta go, but not before I would like to thank all of my fans who stopped and talked and spent their hard-earned cash on my books. You all are what keeps me going, and I’m not talking about the money.

You all know what I’m talking about…

Cheers!
