Hurry Up and Wait

Well, my friends, it has felt like simultaneously a long and anxious wait and also a blink since I registered for my first in-person event. And I still have a week to wait. However, said wait has given me ample time to get all the details in order and I am ready. So ready. Excitement is amping and we’re inside of a week until the Cocoa Village Book Fest (Florida).

Word from the organizers is that this year’s Fest has the most authors they’ve ever had sign up, which is exciting and awesome for everyone involved. Not only will I get to (hopefully) sell some books to some local folks, I’ll also get to meet other elusive authors like myself. There’s a lot of future potential in that thought and I’m here for it.

In the meantime, I did a test run of my table and I have to say something hits different seeing all my titles physically represented in one spot. Just look at it.

If you’re not local to me, this is a friendly reminder that all these titles are available on Amazon in paperback and ebook formats. While I won’t be writing any more Cadillac Payback books, the sequel to The Nameless will release later this year, and the third book in the Order of Crows series is coming early next year. Eventually, I’m going to need a bigger table.

It hasn’t been too terribly long since I put the finishing touches on Crows book 3, and I guess the attention caught the Murder’s fancy because last week they decided to drop everything I had written for book 4 and start over. This is partially because of a single character’s (looking at you, Johnny Mochni) decision to go rogue at the end of book 3 and change some very important events. I would have rewritten the old book 4 words anyway, but now I’m back to discovering what actually happens instead of filling in the gaps I thought I had. I’m four chapters in so far and the landscape is already looking very different than the first version I wrote. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to be me … that’s part of it.

I think that’s all the news for now. Check back soon. I’m feeling like I may tease you guys with a little glimpse of The Nameless sequel. Until then, the countdown to Saturday and the Cocoa Village Book Fest begins!
