News and Number 600

Happy Summer- or Solstice, or however you term the season.
Lots of things happening- and just wanted to note that this is the 600th blog post! That's quite a record, as many start a blog, but fall off along the way. We're still going strong, and in fact will move the platform to a Wordpress site soon enough, to keep up with the times.

First bit of news- later this week we'll interview author Cheryl Hollon.

The excellent crime magazine Thuglit will soon be closing it's doors after a terrific eleven-year run of the best stories around.
I'm honored to report that my tale "Forever Amber" was accepted as the last story ever- for the upcoming final issue:

I'll be taking part at the Boothbay (Maine) Festival of Books on Saturday, July 9, along with the Sisters in Crime.

WEMF radio will interview me on July 14th. Tune in for a good time!

Then I'll be signing books with the NEHW at the Seacoast ComiCon in Kittery, ME on July 23rd.


So yeah- busy Summer ahead, and it's just started! See you soon!

Winner!

Cathy Dougherty and I are winners in the contest "50 Great Writers You Should be Reading." 
Announced today at The Authors Show.

Cathy was also published by my publisher Briona Glen, and she's the author of In Polyester Pajamas.

And here's our official sticker:

Radio Killed the Video Star

Today was my first shot as a guest on the radio show of David Tierney, who runs his show on 91.5, WUML.

We talked about my background, and writing. What I do, and how long I've done it.

It was a great start, and I'll be doing upcoming segments every Monday, from 9:50 to 10:10. You can listen via your computer or regular radio.

If you have suggestions for things you'd like me to talk about, send them along.

Interview is Up!

Very cool- my radio interview is up today on Author Radio (all day long), where I talk about the writing process: http://www.wnbnetworkwest.com/WnbAuthorsShow.html

It's a good one- give a listen.
