i will be one of over a dozen authors signing and (and if there’s any justice in the universe) selling books at Centuries and Sleuths, on Saturday, November 25 from 1-3 PM.
As part of “Small Business Saturday,” Augie Alesky (blessings upon him for supporting local authors) will throw the doors open to some of Chicago’s best independent authors. Pop on by and say hello. If you’re looking for great personalized gifts for the readers in your life, there’s no better way to pick up something unique and appreciated.
Centuries and Sleuths is located at 7419 Madison St, Forest Park, Illinois. Lots of parking downtown.
Subscribe to my monthly newsletter and get a chance to win a signed paperback copy of Acre’s Bastard.

Look in the bottom left of the page for the sign-up sheet. No spam, just once a month updates and a chance to learn about great new Historical Fiction from around the world. Everyone who signs up before January 1 enters to win!
I will be part of a lot of book events in the next few weeks, and would love it if people would come meet me (and even buy a couple of books if you are so inclined.) I will have plenty of paperback copies of both Acres and The Count of the Sahara.
Here is what is happening over the next little bit:
October 15 Hometown Reads and Centuries and Sleuths presents #readlocalshoplocal I am proud to be hosting this gathering of Hometown Reads authors at Centuries and Sleuths in River Forest, IL. We will read and share our books with pretty much everyone who pops in. If you enjoy meeting and discovering new writers, this is the event for you. If we need to bribe you, there will be snacks.
I will also be sharing plenty of tips for aspiring writers about selling eBooks. As a writer, it can be all too tempting to think that once your eBook is written, then the hard work is done. However, selling copies of your eBook is an entirely different process these days. So, if you have always wanted to learn about some of the best digital e-commerce platforms for eBook authors then this is the event for you. Similarly, if you would like to learn more about some of the latest digital e-commerce software, you can find some useful resources over on the FastSpring website here: https://fastspring.com/solutions/selling-digital-products/.
Please stop by and say hello. I love meeting readers (even those who do not buy my book, although I may steal a lock of hair for a voodoo doll, you will not even miss it)
