Maryland Renaissance Festival Multi-Day Passes
My signing will be on August 30th, a month away! I’ll be there alongside fantasy authors Anna Bright and Daniel M. Ford. It will be done with MDRF’s bookstore Page after Page. Tickets are required for entrance to MDRF and must be bought in advance, online only.
Multi-day passes will be available soon, on July 7th 10am Eastern Time, and can cover any specific range of days depending on which pass you choose. Individual day tickets will go on sale August 4th at 10am Eastern Time. These tickets will likely go fast, so make sure to plan on buying them right away if you want to come.
I will have copies of Mystical Greenwood and Beneath the Deep Wave as well as three anthologies featuring my poetry and/or short stories: Faery Footprints, Fae Dreams, and Into the Glen: Into the Light. The novels will be on sale at $20 each, and the anthologies $10 each. So, plan accordingly.
The event is on Facebook if you would like to join there or invite anyone you think would be interested.

Upcoming Events Updates
I have a few author appearances coming up in the next few months. Mark your calendars!
In a few weeks, I’ll be participating in Balticon 59. This will be my second time at Balticon. I had a good time last year and hope I will have a good time this year as well. Here is my schedule:
Friday 5/23
- From Concept to Final Draft, Guilford Room, 4-5pm.
Sunday 5/23
- Lightbulb Moments: How Authors Develop Ideas, James Room, 11:30-12:30pm.
- What’s in a Name? Kent Room, 1-2pm.
- Autographs, 5th Floor Lobby, 4-5pm.
I will be the moderator on the Name panel, a subject I was eager to contribute to, having done a presentation on it. And my autograph session will be alongside one of the guests of honor this year, Sebastian de Castell!
I also have an update on tickets for the Maryland Renaissance Festival, where I will be doing another author signing on August 30th, Labor Day Weekend, from 11-5pm. Tickets are required for entrance to MDRF and must be bought in advance, online only. Daily tickets will go on sale August 4th 10am Eastern Time, and multi-day passes will be available July 7th 10am Eastern Time. Also, the event is on Facebook.
On a last note, the Maryland Writers’ Association is accepting presentation submissions for their annual conference in October. The deadline to submit is at the end of the month. I hope to present myself, but I’ll have to wait and see whether that’ll happen.

Maryland Renaissance Festival
I am going to be signing books at the Maryland Renaissance Festival! I can’t tell you how much I’m looking forward to it. I remember going there a lot as a kid, once with the Tolkien Society in college, and having volunteered there a few times with my Masonic brothers.
I plan to have copies of Mystical Greenwood and Beneath the Deep Wave as well as three anthologies featuring my poetry and/or short stories: Faery Footprints, Fae Dreams, and Into the Glen: Into the Light. You know, I may have written the festival scene in Mystical Greenwood with the Renaissance Festival in mind.
My signing will be on August 30th. It will be done with MDRF’s bookstore Page after Page. Tickets are required for entrance to MDRF and must be bought in advance, online only. Daily tickets will likely go on sale August 1st. So be sure to mark your calendars or make a note on your iPhones. I hope to see you there if you can make it!

Open Mic Annapolis M.W.A.
Here’s my reading at this month’s open mic at the Annapolis chapter of the Maryland Writers’ Association. The poems are four of six featured in the new anthology Honesty in Verse. YouTube made it a short for some reason instead of a traditional video, but at least it’s up.
And many thanks to Sally Cronin for featuring Beneath the Deep Wave in her Christmas book fair:
Happy Holidays, everyone! If you’ve read something of mine and haven’t rated or reviewed it yet, please do. It would definitely make the season brighter for me.
