Updates
Up next: Vegas for Halloween! Always fun, and more importantly, seeing some people I love, that I haven’t seen in 2 years. Listen, as you get older, it may sound morbid but you don’t know when you’ll see those people again, and you have to grab every opportunity and make it count. The fact that…

An Excerpt From The Scale Tips Dark (Book 2 of Trials of a Demon Prince)
“Albany, actually, but the two are like twenty minutes apart. Double reason to stay away,” he muttered. “Ronni bought the tickets, though, and Azzie wasn’t there…at the counter, I mean. They must be together voluntarily. So what gives? Going north had to be her idea.” “Doesn’t mean she hasn’t somehow forced Azzie into obedience,” Reyneart…

NYCC
Was incredible! First, it was great to be back in the City, where I haven’t been for years and years. Not that I got to see a lot of it. But that feeling of being a tiny insect among the monuments of cement and steel, amidst the hum hum hum bustle bustle of everyone dashing…

Comic Con in the Books!
Nice picture of my puppets on display courtesy of Thom, somehow they’ve turned into a miniature Carnival of Creepy, and I love it. Oz sales were good, again, how lucky I got that the books arrived well in advance of Amazon’s guestimate of 10/13. And the prints are taking off, notably the Zodiac line (and…

Up Next: Albany Comic Con
Albany Comic Con is my favorite show to do, by far. Ok, I haven’t done a whole lot to compare it to, but still. Not like I’m going to San Diego or Dallas anytime soon, unless someone is up for donating airfare and a hotel room (and would I say no? Probably not. I have…

As Autumn Starts
First, a random kindness today. Placed my usual order at Dunkin, there is a car in front of me. When I get the the window, the guy holds up my coffee and says, “Today’s your lucky day!” The person ahead of me bought my breakfast! He also told me I was the big winner because…

Upper Madison Street Fair
Coming Sunday, Sept 20th, as in next Sunday! 12-5. I’ll be there with books, artwork, and puppets (my miniature marionettes as well as John Koethen and his full-size kids). Looking forward to seeing old friends and new faces! This festival is always packed, but not to the point where you can’t breathe. The site lists…

Cars Suck
They don’t, really. Not too much. If you can afford them. They can actually be enjoyable. I do like driving. But I’ve put $1600 into my car since March. And now, in early September, I have to cough up another $1500. So generally as technology is around longer and longer, prices come down. What did…

Fantacon 2015
Joy, because it was fun, and I had some sales, and got my artwork out there. There were some great guests… Sadly, it was underattended. I mean by a lot. Saturday was slow, and we chalked some of that up to “well, it’s the Travers and American Pharoah is running” or “the weather is nice,…

NY Hauntings: Oakwood Cemetery
There are no real specific legends about Oakwood. Most of it is the same stories associated with every other cemetery on the planet: orbs, shadows, and apparitions. One time a friend and I were in there, and a car pulled up to us, and the couple inside asked if we knew where the Gateway to…
