It is one week into 2024 now and I am four chapters into writing my new mystery novel. Probably won't get into it this weekend, we are expecting a bad winter storm to come through Sunday evening and stay a couple of days. Everyone hopes we don't lose our electricity and water this time. I have flashlights in almost every room now and even carry them around the house with me. Am reading old Lee Child Jack Reacher novels. I haven't tried writing a thriller. But I've got a very interesting haunted house novel out--Tiger Tiger Burning Bright. I was going to title it Fan Mail and Tigers and Ghosts, Oh My but was persuaded not. Give it a try. Old news--Obviously, the drawings in the gallery at this time have nothing to do with Roxanne's photography. They were done by Streetlight Graphics for my collection ILL MET BY MOONLIGHT. Thank you Cult Classic con in Bastrop, Greater Austin Comic Con, Corpus Christi Comic Con, Armadillo Con, and Cult Classic Baton Rouge con this year (2023) for the opportunity to sell my books. And for inviting George Takei, Sean Austin, and the actors from The Warriors as guests. Our selling year is drawing to a close, but there's always Amazon and Barnes & Noble, and Apple, and Wendy R's, and Bookpeople, all who carry all or some of my books. Updated 09/20/2023 Well, I meant to update the blog page and ended up here instead. So, to continue the thread below, we attended Cult Classic con in Bastrop the first of March 2023. Had a great time. Sold books. Can highly recommend to fans of grade D horror movies and the actors in them. Check it out next year. And come by our booth and introduce yourself. THE TEXAS BOOK FESTIVAL FIRST WEEKEND IN NOVEMBER was absolutely great. A lot of people came, and I mean a lot. It was fun watching them. Everyone was pleasant. We sold my books, but not the one I figured they'd like. I bet if we'd brought my science fiction novels with us, they'd have flown of the shelves (so to speak) That was the last of the sales opportunities we had for the year, not counting my two novels at Logo's and three other novels across the street at Wendy R's in Lockhart, and the two novels I have in BookPeople in Austin. Looking forward to 2023. |
