I love conventions. The 7th annual Scarefest, located in Lexington, Kentucky, may be the largest convention I’ve attended. Over 15,000 passed through last year, and I can’t wait to pitch the readers among them on my books. I’m going into battle with the three books pictured, which I think will cover the majority of horror and dark fiction tastes.

Hyde is the erotically charged freak show. Goodnight, My Sweet is the romantic, end of the world thriller. And The Butcher Bride is a razor slice of revenge mayhem that will satisfy the blood lust of any 80’s slasher film fan. I’m really proud of them all, and I’m hoping to have a record sales weekend. 

I also love conventions because it’s one of the few places on earth I can wallow in the company of like minded horror folk who sport Texas Chainsaw, zombie, and Buffy t-shirts. People will sport a variety of characters and creatures. Fake blood will flow like bosoms in a Hammer vampire flick, and come Sunday night, my face will ache from all the smiling.

I have a feeling that this is gonna be a weekend for the ages! Can’t wait to posts pics and tell tales upon my return!
