THE SPIDER and TREK EXPO!

[robinbailey]

I got word from Moonstone Books today that they're -very- happy with the expansion on THE SPIDER - Death Votes Twice.  They've got the artist lined up already.  I'm afraid I haven't gotten the artist's name.  However, I'm excited.  Writing the story was great fun.  There are some touch-up "suggestions" to take a look at next week.

Meanwhile, I'm writing this from a Hilton Inn in Tulsa.  We made the drive down this afternoon in the scorching heat.  Tomorrow TREK EXPO begins with a really stellar line-up of actors and stars and a handful of writers.  This will be the third year I've served as Master of Ceremonies for this event.  It's great fun - but also exhausting.  I have to be up and ready to appear on a local television morning news program at 8 o'clock in the morning, which means getting up a six to dress and get breakfast.  I don't do six o'clock well - at least not on the "getting up" side of the day.  But, what the hell, I'm a trouper, and promotional opportunities are gold these days.

I'm getting so respectable.  I turned down a chance to go with friends to the Tulsa Eagle tonight because I've got to get up so early.  Feh on respectability.

Did I say that it's scorching?
