Live at Geek Bar Beta, 6/15

Hey! Been a while since I played a gig as a songwriter. I've done a gig of songs by The Back Row Hooligans (my messed-up children's band) and with Scapegoat (my band from 8th grade) but I don't think I've really played a full set of my "regular" songs in about 5 years.

That'll change on June 15th at 7pm, when I play a set as part of the Windycon Music Night at Geek Bar Beta, 1941 W. North Ave.

I've started writing songs again lately, and plan to play mostly new material here. Some titles include "Just Like Big Jake's YA Novel Blues," "Nametags of the Damned," "Holy Quest," "Fairy Godmofo," "Sequels to 'I Kissed a Zombie'," and "Co-Star." Most of them are based on stuff from my books - both published ones and ones I never have gotten around to writing. The songs are helping to develop the stories of the unwritten ones a lot! I've been writing and recording demos of about 5 songs a week this month, and I can't wait to show them off.

Anyway, that's Geek Bar Beta, June 15th, 7pm. The place is all-ages before 9pm, and the show is free. Also on the bill are Three Fifths and Dan the Bard.  All of this is to promote Windycon in November - I'll be playing a set there, too! Not sure yet if I'll be playing solo, with a backup band, or what, but it'll be a fun way to spend a summer night.

Other than that, I'm working on several new book projects, including revisions on Kill Me Now, my next novel, which Simon and Schuster will publish next year.
