awesome. I'll send you a PM later about getting in touch via phone. I first need to get a couple of things sorted with my coeditor, as far as what questions to ask. We're just looking for your thoughts as far as the direction of the publishing industry, especially in relation to some of the shifts we see such as Jeff Gerke's new venture in Marcher Lord Press and the rise of PODs like Lulu, Xulon, Xlibris, etc. and the popularity of "catalogue" style sales (CBD, Amazon, etc.) With those things coupled alongside the downslide of economy and the bankruptcy of many large chains, what do you see in the future of the industry (from an authors point of view) and where do you see this all going?
anyway, I'll get back to you in a few weeks at the latest!
hey wayne, it's been a long time. I just wanted to drop you a line cause I'm coediting a magazine this year (an annual anthology called BetterFiction) and was wondering if you might be up for an interview? hit me back

'ello mr. batson!you prob. wont remember me...i was at one of the book signings w/ shelby lipes...im sure that you remember her,hope you are enjoying her book,she ran out of paper to print the rest,she is driving me crazy!
Bonjour! The Door Within Trilogy is awesome! I just got done reading them, and they were so good that I had to buy the ones with the "lost chapters"! They were better than the Lord of the Rings, and very close to the Chronicles of Narnia! Never Alone!
Isle of Swords Release Party Friday, September 28th, 7-9pm Barnes & Noble 4300 Montgomery Rd Ellicott City, MD 21043 (410) 203-9001
I'd like to personally invite you to come to the Isle of Swords Release Party. This should be a very exciting evening. I'll be there doing dramatic readings from Isle of Swords, as well as, a special sneak peek at something else coming in the not to distant future.
•Pirate Costume Contests
•Special Photo Op Sessions
•Snacks
•Prizes
•Book Signing
Thomas Nelson Publishers will even be flying my publicist in to help with the event. Secretly, I think they want to know just what I do at these things. ;-) There may also be local press.
That said, the bigger the turnout, the better. I'd like to see that Barnes & Nobles store absolutely swamped with folks...and pirates. I'll be dressed in full pirate garb, including my new cutlass from RealArmorofGod.com.
Thanks, Josh and Erica I will probably increase my My Space presence this year. It'll probably be after October--I have the sequel to Isle of Swords deadline Oct. 20.
