Coming Soon -- Giddy and Euphoric: Essays on Writing and Reading (and Ray Bradbury)!!!



I'm thrilled to announce that the galley for my first nonfiction book has been approved and is in the process of getting printed courtesy of Pro Se Press. This one features my essays and tutorials about writing, reading, and as advertised on the cover, a little bit of my favorite sci-fi author Ray Bradbury too. 

With luck, timing, and the gods and goddesses of shipping (would that be Apollo and Diana?) on our side, we'll hopefully see this one in time for my appearance at Mid South Con at the end of next month. 

Fingers crossed.
