This October eve, I'd like to post a shameless plug, I mean, reminder that this book is good for all seasons. This post-apocalyptic work is a relaxing break from the current headlines.
You can find it at Barnes & Noble, Apple Books, and that vast online seller of books that shall remain nameless.

If you are in the central Florida area Saturday, please drop by this delightfully quirky mall and say hello!

If you're familiar with the central Florida area, this is the most un-mall kind of mall there is. It has a couple of anchor stores, and the rest are small or independent. And they do festivals. On July 12, I'll be selling my novel here and talking about new projects.
If you're there, please say hi!

What's better than getting a 5-star review for your book?
Getting it from an author whose work you respect, that's what.
Thank you Chris!!

So, this was my Saturday. I set up for the second annual Blackbird Book Fair, hosted by Ten10 Brewing Company in Orlando. These images are from the set-up, before the crowds arrived to explore, peruse, or just have a really fun Saturday.
So, how was this, my first book fair as an author?

Ray Bradbury has inspired me since I was old enough to read.
His words were a race through the wicker fields of Summer, slow footsteps of tired travelers dragging through the dead sands of Mars, the scurry of bat-winged leaves borne aloft on an October night, and all of life and wonder.
