Book Launch on the Horizon

As you may know, Mik Murdoch: Crisis of Conscience, the third book in the Mik Murdoch, Boy Superhero series is now available. To celebrate the new book, I will be holding a book launch Saturday, September 24th at Crowfoot Chapters (11 – 4 PM). Please come by if you would like your very own signed copy. I am also looking into doing an online event at the same time. I will post more if that comes to fruition. 🙂 Finally, if you would like you own signed copy, email me with your name and address and I will let you know what the total costs (including shipping) would be.

Prevailing against Expectations

I’ve been guilty of setting high expectations for myself throughout my life. Things like, if I work my butt off this year, I will show my boss I deserve that raise. Then, when I do my part and the other party doesn’t quite live up to their end of the bargain, I’m disappointed and frustrated. Usually when that happened (in the past) I started looking elsewhere.

Going to When Words Collide

Today I go to When Words Collide 2016 where I will be representing my author-self and Evil Alter Ego Press. Two hats, one large head. Over the course of the weekend, I will be hosting a book social (Friday at 5 PM), sitting a panel, holding several pitch sessions and doing a signing. Those are the official tasks. Unofficially, I hope to reconnect with many of the writer friends I have out there and get new ideas for the press. Maybe even find a book or two. It will be busy, but fun, I think. I will be bringing plenty of books to sell and sign not to mention business cards to hand out. If you are going, please come […]
