I’m sneaking off to Phauxcon for the day, a teeny tiny con in Philadelphia.
I’m bringing my laptop along though, because IÂ need to get some work done on the novel.
Barry is staying home.

One of the things I like best about Capclave is how organized they are. I received my schedule from them several days ago. Insane, right? So, here’s where you can find me:
Friday
5:00pm – 6:009m : (Plaza II)Â Abusing Authors
Eric Choi, Laura Anne Gilman, C.J. Henderson, Lawrence M. Schoen, Alan Smale
Saturday
2:00pm – 3:30pm : (Plaza III Con Suite)Â Book Launch Party
Not sure who all will be there, but I’ll have copies of Sweet Potato Pie to wave around.
4:00pm – 4:30pm : (Twinbrook)Â Reading
I will likely read something from the new Conroy novel, coming out in March!
8:00pm – 9:00pm : (Plaza II)Â Capclave Autograph Session
Mass pandemonium. I suspect I’ll be looking to get more things signed than the other way around.
Eric T. Reynolds is the publisher behind Hadley Rille Books. Over the last few years Eric has purchased several stories from me for inclusion in his excellent anthologies. In August 2008, at the 66th World Science Fiction Convention (in Denver), we met face to face for the first time. Up to that moment, all of his books had been anthologies. By convention’s end we’d shaken hands on a deal for his first science fiction novel. Nine months later HRB published Buffalito Destiny. It was my first book too.
In August of 2009, at the 67th World Science Fiction Convention, in Montréal, Canada, we met again. Eric chose not to buy another book from me. No, he did not. Instead, we shook hands on an agreement for TWO BOOKS!
One book will be a collection of short stories.
The second book will feature the adventures of the Amazing Conroy (and Reggie), and pick up shortly after where Buffalito Destinyleft off.
My, my, but it’s going to be a busy year.

Welcome back to another installment of asking authors about their favorite meals. This feature was inspired by my protagonist, the Amazing Conroy, who in addition to being a stage hypnotist is also very much a foodie.
Today we break bread with AUTHOR
