It’s Sunday and I’m writing this as I sit at my dealer’s table at LosCon. This, by the way, is a terrible idea; never type a blog post while you’re trying to run a table. It takes your focus away from potential customers and lowers your sales. Oops. Anyways, something has come up a number…

It’s where I come to re-invigorate myself. To work with other authors, and find authors to work with me. To interact with my fans directly,…
