Not too long ago, I was guy who had written a book and was lucky enough to find someone to publish it. But I knew NOTHING about the process: editing, galleys, getting blurbs. I didn't even know where I was supposed to sign the books, until some of you chimed in. But look at me now. I am starting to feel like a pro. I have lots of great news:


INTERNATIONAL


First off, Never Slow Dance With A Zombie has just been picked up by Pan Macmillan Australia. The book is now available for fans in Australia. Throw a few shrimp on the barbie--Australia! Wow! I don't think I have any fans is Australia--yet. But now that NSDWAZ is available there, who knows. Anyway, it's my first international sale, and I am thrilled.


BOOK FAIR


I have been booked to be on a panel at the West Hollywood Book Fair (Click here: West Hollywood Book Fair ) on Sunday October 4th from 1:45-2:45. I don't know who else is going to be on the panel, but I'm sure they will be way more important than me. The panel is being sponsored by Dark Delicacies, a wonderful book store in Burbank, California:Click here: Dark Delicacies . If you know of anyone who might be attending, please ask them to stop by and say hi. I will let you know more about the event as we get closer.


COMIC-CON

If you are attending Comic-Con and you'd like to find the Zombiettes they will be attending the Zombie Walk Thursday night. Click here: Zombie Walk: San Diego If you see them and say "Margot sent me," you qualify to win a free ARC of Never Slow Dance With A Zombie.

I will be at Comic Con on Saturday the 25th. I will be at the Black Panel Saturday morning. I won't be on the panel, but you can find me there. Or if you spot me on the floor please say hi.


The book comes out on August 18th, and remember I will be reading and signing at Book Soup on Sunset Boulevard Sunday August 22nd at 7PM..... Look at that. I'm like a real professional. Hawking my book like a carnival barker. Guys, I can't tell you how much fun I am having. Thanks again for coming along on this ride with me. Can't wait for the book to come out.

Sleep tight...
