Off to ShoreLeave!
I'll post about our recent vacation when I get a chance, but first it's that time of year again-this weekend I'll be heading down to Hunt Valley, Maryland (just outside Baltimore) for the ShoreLeave convention! If you're in the area, stop by and say hi! Here's what my schedule looks like:
Friday, July 8:
10pm-midnight, Hunt/Valley Corridor: Meet the Pros
I’ll be here with all the other authors, just hanging out so people can say hi, get autographs, buy books, etc. I’ll have copies of Birth of the Dread Remora with me, so if you haven’t bought one yet now’s your chance!
Saturday, July 9:

David R. George III and I will be talking about how to make that leap forward, professionally speaking.
noon-1pm, Salon E: Crazy 8s!

Keith R.A. DeCandido, Richard White, David Mack, and I talk about how to balance your time, write, and maybe even still have space for a life.
