Crimsonstreaking in Richmond


The Tour 2012 continues tomorrow in Richmond, Indiana. I return to my hometown* to sign copies of I, Crimsonstreak and catch up with friends.

Grab a copy, get a bookmark, and see if you can get me to sign a copy of 50 Shades of Grey.

Here's the relevant information:

4601 National Road East
Richmond, IN 47374
1pm-3pm

*I'm not from Richmond precisely...I grew up in Williamsburg. However, the Burg was destroyed in the book, thus...the signing is in Richmond.

Weekly Update

  • I, Crimsonstreak got a review at Comic Attack if you want to take a look at it. A follow-up interview is coming soon.
  • I will be at Hastings in Richmond, Indiana, on Saturday to sign some books and catch up with folks from my hometown.
  • I'm currently 38,000 words into my current work in progress, a humorous science fiction novel. The concept is interesting, but I'm not sure it's coming together just yet. I'm shooting for 90,000 on this one, putting me at a little less than the halfway point.
  • My next project will be a memoir "written" by Mortimer P. Willoughby. Working title: Mortimer: International Man of Taste and Intrigue. I'm excited about this one.
  • I saw Brave this week. Another solid, heartfelt movie from Pixar.
  • I plan to blog 20 Great Moments from Batman Begins and 20 Great Moments from The Dark Knight. This is all in preparation for the release of The Dark Knight Rises, that indie Batman movie that's been flying under the radar.

The Current Reading List

The Kindle is great...death to the Kindle.

My reading list is waaaaaaaay too long.

Let's take a look:

Green Light Delivery by Anne E. Johnson
Wildcards I by George R.R. Martin
Blackbirds by Chuck Wendig
Crimes in Southern Indiana by Frank Bill
Fly into Fire by Susan Jane Bigelow
Haunting Blue by R.J. Sullivan
The Big Miss: My Years Coaching Tiger Woods by Hank Haney
Star Wars: Allegiance by Timothy Zahn
The Sicilian by Mario Puzo
After the Golden Age by Carrie Vaughn
Crown of Vengeance (Fires of Eden Series) by Stephen Zimmer

You know what...actually...it doesn't look that bad.

These are the "priority" books. I'm always adding to the list, so even when I check one of these off, a new one gets added. My reading list is kind of like HYDRA that way, "Cut off one head...two more shall take its place."
