Upcoming events, tidbits, and thanks!
A little early, but with the official Yuletide season fast approaching (and ending, egads!), I have been asked by many for a generalized list of where I might be showing up next year - and also when will the new book Glaive be ready and what show will it be first shown?
Well, the draft itself is complete - soon to be in the capable hands of Erin Potter my amazing editor. So far I am participating at the below events - hopeful the book will be ready to officially showcase at one of the latter ones next year, but there may be others added on, so time will tell...but, I will giva ya hints here as the book moves through the proverbial progressive steps...
PeoriaCon (in Peoria IL), March 7-8!
CodCon (in Glen Ellyn IL), April 17-19!
DragonDays (in Lake Geneva, WI), Oct 4-5!
RockCon (in Rockford IL), Nov 6-8!
Goddess of Thyme Ren Faire - initially scheduled for June - sad to say, after a wonderful event last year, the organizers have decided to go their own creatively separate ways, cancelling the event!
There are a few more events, possibly in May and September, which I'm still looking at. It's going to be a fun year, with Glaive finally shining on his own, and thoughts are already percolating for a Part Two...or maybe a combination Glaive Part Two and the original Forging of a Knight series Part Eight...depending on how much help Glaive might need! We shall see!

It was again another banner year for Forging of a Knight, topping the previous one! Many, many hearty huzzah's and thank-you's to all who have been following the series, or were just introduced to it for the first time. The pleasure for me has been not only in its creation, but the many friends and comrades I have made who have joined the adventure with me. It's those relationships that really count: the tales read, the stories shared, the hobbies explored. When meeting readers at these various conventions, I've given hugs to those who needed it during tough times that my books helped ease just a little, and I've given high-fives to others who have asked for critiques and feedback, looking to write stories of their own. It's a wonderful tribe, made up of gamers, creatives, hobbyists, artists, writers, poets, and all sorts of imaginative, ingenious, and inventive individuals! Thank you for allowing me into your worlds to share mine!
