My First Public Reading

My first public reading from Arcana will take place this Wednesday night, March 3rd, at Ginkgo Coffee’s Open Mic Night. Performances start at 7 PM.

I can’t guarantee where I’ll fall in the lineup, and I also can’t guarantee whether or not I’ll have additional copies of the book with me. I’ve sold out of my first order of them and my second might or might not reach me by then. Still, it should be a fun time for all – a number of other creative folks that I know will be performing and they’re very good.

I’m looking forward to holding more formal signings and so forth soon, but this opportunity just came along and I’m taking advantage of it. Hope to see you there!

Arcana At Pantheacon

This coming weekend Pendraig Publishing will be vending at Pantheacon 2010 in San Jose, California. If you happen to be attending the convention, it would be a perfect time to pick up a copy of my book. Of course, it would also be a good opportunity to check out Pendraig’s other fascinating titles as well.

Sadly, I won’t be able to make it out there this year due to my work schedule and recent medical issues so you won’t be able to get yourself a signed copy, but I hope to be able to make it to conventions and festivals such as Pantheacon next year. Until then, if you are going here’s wishing you a safe trip and a wonderful weekend. It sounds like it will be a lot of fun.

Update: As it turns out, you probably will have to order the book after all. I just found out that Pendraig won’t be vending because Pantheacon already has Llewellyn and Field Books there and didn’t want any other publishers vending. That’s one of the downers of a smaller publishing house – bigger companies tend to dominate vending space. Of course, the advantage of not publishing with Llewellyn is that I don’t have to tailor my writing to the younger demographic that their fiction books are aimed at.

Nope, that just doesn’t work…
