New Book on Schedule!
It’s been a while since I blogged back in July.
Basically, I’ve spent all this time finishing my latest novel, SEEDERS. I handed it in a couple weeks ago to my
editor and her changes should be coming in a couple of days. So glad things are moving quickly! I’m excited about this book and can’t wait to
get it into the hands of my readers.
Turns out, this is a great time to get back to
blogging. Just got back from New York Comic Con 2013, where the cosplay was
fabulous. If you like to people-watch,
this was the place to be. In a ten-block
radius of the Javits Center, there were wacky characters everywhere. The streets looked truly bizarre, even for
New York City.
Of
course, once we got inside the convention center, it was wall to wall nerd
heaven…
Apparently,
people lined up at the door all night, raided the Main Stage first thing in the
morning and camped out in the room until 6:30 that night to see Rick, Daryl, Glen
and the rest. Apparently the room is
never cleared between panels so few have a chance of seeing the main
attraction. We got on line at about 4:30
when it was 2,000 people long and the ushers pretty much laughed at all of us
thinking we’d actually get in. Okay, most were sympathetic, but my kids were crushed.
Thankfully,
The Walking Dead producers saved the day by setting up a traveling museum a few
blocks away. I doubt many people knew
about it, but we stumbled across it on the way to lunch. There were a lot of props from the series,
including Rick’s hat, Daryl’s crossbow, Merle’s hand, a casting of T-Dog and
even the bloated guy in the well.
It wasn’t as good as
seeing Norman Reedus in person, but it was the next best thing.
