If you are going to be in the area (and the area is Lethbridge, Alberta), please take some time to drop in to the Lethbridge Comic Con and see me.

I suspect I could even be convinced to sign a book or two if you ask nice. 😉

It usually starts out as me telling myself I’ve earned a (brief) break after burning the midnight oil to finish something. The problem usually is, brief often becomes prolonged. I know, I really pushed to get Mik Murdoch 2 finished. I wrote more than 30,000 words in under 2-weeks to ensure it would be complete by the end of my holidays. Then I took a short break.
