This weekend, Con-Volution is returning to the Hyatt Regency at SFO and it’s all about monsters. I can’t wait!
They’ve got me scheduled for an amazing SEVEN panels this year. I’m hoping I can keep my energy up to get through them all.
I won’t be sharing space with anyone in the Dealers Room, but if you would like a pick up one of my books from me, let me know. I’ll be glad to bring some along.
