The other Con coming up is StarFest, but unfortunately I will not be going this year. Sad day indeed:( But I’m planning on going to NDK and MileHiCon and I hope to have my third book out by then.
My second book is now at the publisher and it should be released soon.
I’m glad you had a good time at the DFWCon. If you’re going to Opus, I would love to hear more about that Con.
Hope all is well and I hope to see you soon.
Cheers.
