What I've been up to:

[wednes]

Went to the dentist for the first time in over ten years yesterday. Yeah, I know...the dentist said the same thing. So now I get to go through a pretty intensive cleaning and scraping process. They also said something about oral surgery of some kind. So I guess I have that to deal with.

My galley for The Cat's Apprentice is here, and I've been going over that. It's still not my best work, but it's a perfectly readable novel. I like the characters, and I like what they do. I'm just not sure about theme, and wish I had another couple months to work on it. Anyway, that comes out in September. Truthfully, I'm more excited about the horror anthology that comes out in October. It contains a few of my most favorite short horror stories: In the Closet, The Growlers, and Moonlight Stab, among others.

Also been working on a script for a 30 second TV spot for A Stabbing for Sadie which is going to run during Nightmare SINema and anywhere I can post it. I can't afford any network or cable time, but I can afford this, so I'm going for it. Mad thanks to uterdic who will be helping out. I'm pretty excited to have a TV spot for my book, I hope it does some good. Locally famous is a good precursor to actual fame.

That reminds me, anyone who wants a signed copy needs to preorder thier copy within the next 2 weeks. I haven't presold that many books, I want to be loaded down with them on my way to the post office. C'mon kids. You don't want to miss out on reading my book. Of course, you won't actually miss out if you don't preOrder. You'll be able to get the book for a good, long time after the official release. But if you want a SIGNED copy, you better order soon.

If you get near it, do try the bannana stuffed french toast at iHop. It'll blow your mind.
