Coming Back at Ya

Are you cheap like me? Then rejoice. The paperback edition of THE PALE BLUE EYE is out! My son has approved the design, though when he asked me who the two people on the cover were, I’m afraid I couldn’t answer him. He was reassured to know that the same number of people die in the paperback as in the hardback. That’s pretty much how he assesses the value of any book: body count.

Also wanted you to know about some upcoming appearances:

Thursday, June 14

1307 19th St., NW
Washington, DC

Thursday, July 19

So if you’re anywhere in the vicinity, drop on by. I’d love to meet you. (A Baltimore event may be happening, too. Will let you know.)
