Upcoming Appearances:

I'm scaling back on 'cons this year; I just don't have the time.  But here are a couple I'm currently planning on:

RustiCon

RadCon

NorWesCon 2012

I'll be performing with A Little Knight Music Friday night at about 8pm (I think; check the 'con schedule before you count on it).  Oh yeah, I'll also be there doing readings, panels, and signing books.

NorWescon 2011 was a lot of fun.  I met lots of old and new friends, and met one of my own literary idols, Patricia McKillip.

I also sold lots of books; so far, The Strawberry Roan is outselling all my other titles, with Ironwolfe running a close second.  I gave a reading from The Strawberry Roan to an almost full room, and got a great audience response--including lots of laughs.  Very satisfying.

Also heard from Duane, the Czar of Science Fiction and Fantasy at the University Bookstore.  He is very excited to finally be carrying my titles.  Not as excited as I am!  The UW bookstore is the Seattle area's Mecca as far as SF/F readers are concerned, and Duane is picky about what he carries.  Probably because he reads most of it himself and doesn't generally stock stuff he doesn't think is good.

I do readings and signings at conventions and bookstores around the northwest.  I keep forgetting to post the updates.  I'll do better in 2012.  Promise.
