July 2014 Preview
July is the heart of the summer. It’s also the month of San Diego Comic-Con, which always brings lots of great geek news. It’s unclear how much we’ll be hearing about Star Wars this year, but no doubt other franchises will bring the excitement.
ConGregate – Later this month I travel to North Carolina to attend the inaugural ConGregate convention in Winston-Salem. I’ll be moderating two panels and be panelist on several more. Of course, look for recaps here on the blog.
Wynde and the Fireheart Series – The ConGregate convention also features my first official book signings for Wynde! I also have two readings scheduled, so I’ll have to ponder carefully which scenes to select. I’ll also be making a major reveal at the con, so check back to the blog for the update.
Fangirls Going Rogue – Tricia and Teresa check in with Ashley Eckstein on Her Universe’s upcoming products. We’ll also discuss the latest Star Wars developments and more.
