Cynthia and I are comped Guests once again at this year’s DiversiCON in St. Paul, July 30 - August 1, and it looks like I’ll be mostly doing writing and literary panels along with pitching a few more book manuscripts.

You know, the usual.

Also signed up for the 3 - 5 PM shift at the Bemidji Book Festival Author Signing down at the Lakefront August 14th.

(Sigh.)

MARRIAGE…AFTER DEATH Galley

My editor at Heuer sent us the galley for MARRIAGE…AFTER DEATH (and, by the way, that’s how the … are being used by the publisher on this one…), and it has already been proofed and sent back.

Huzzah.

Abbey is thrilled (she also gave birth last week! Yay!) and I am satisfied.

Here’s hoping we have copies in hand before CONvergence!!!

More publishing news to be announced from that front soon, too.

Other stuff:

THE FUNKY WEREPIG interview went great, found out from R. Scott on air that Stygian Publications will be releasing THREE ZOMBIES AND A DEMON in August, hopefully in time for Diversicon. The podcast for that is now up, too.

I’ve also been tapped to be a guest on THE DARK FICTION SPOTLIGHT as well, stay tuned.
