The Fall book tour is shaping up to be an intense one with appearances every between July 27th through most of August. We’ve added South Dakota Festival of Books in Deadwood, SD to the list as well as Dragonflight outside of Seattle, WA Fandemonium just outside of Boise, ID. Portland, OR may get a trio. Wordstock and NW Book Festival are both committed and we are actively working to get a place in Orycon. We’ve been offered space in the Kansas Book Festival this year but other commitments prevent our attending this year.
In addition we’ve added the “Demon Holiday” Book Launch Event, which will be held in Dayton, OH. Anyone interested in tickets should contact us for details.
We hope to see you at as many of these events as you can attend!

An Eighty Percent Solution was given the opportunity to be spotlight blog post on Critique Circle recently. You can read this post for yourself at http://www.critiquecircle.com/blog.asp?blogID=55
To burgeoning writers out there, I can’t say enough good things about Critique Circle. I wish they would have been around when I first wrote Toy Wars, 15 years ago. Having people in your own genre to critique your work is invaluable. Please visit them and if you have the writing bug, take advantage of it!

We are actively setting up readings / signings and convention appearances. We are negotiating with Orcas Bookstore in Olympia, WA for a May date and The Last Word Books in Olympia, WA for a late April date.
We have confirmation that both Thomas Gondolfi and Bruce Graw will be attending GenCon in August. Tentatively Tom Gondolfi will be giving 2 different seminars: “How to turn GM into $” and “How to Love Self-Publishing”. In addition he will be one of the featured authors in the Authors’ Avenue.
We are working on an appearance at several other conventions. More as things start firming up. Check Authors>>Appearances often for updates.

Our plan has been from the start to release the books to bookstores for sale on our official release date. As that now approaches (April 4th) we’ve begun the backbreaking task of taking the books door to door within the independent book seller community. While it is a small step, books can now be purchased from the following venues (in addition to Amazon or here on our website):
- Orca’s Bookstore (Olympia, WA)
- A Novel Bookstore (Yelm, WA)
- The Last Word (Olympia WA)
We will be adding a page to list all available local booksellers in the near future.

Demon Holiday has gone to press. Anticipate books available for purchase sometime near the middle of April. Work is actively going on to bring out the sequel to Demon Holiday, Demon Ascendant in the fall as promised. As most of you already know, the bulk of the writing is complete it just needs a tweak on the front end.
The superlative author Tony Foti has once again agreed to grace our cover. Previews as we get further along in the design.

A book launch party for the two new novels Toy Wars and An Eighty Percent Solution has been finalized. The event will take place April 4th in Portland, Oregon, the site of most of the action of An Eighty Percent Solution and moderately close to the home of that author, Thomas Gondolfi.
Invitations will be going out in the next two weeks. If you are a member of the press, a bookstore owner or buyer, book club leader or just a rabid scifi fan, please email us for an invitation.
