I am writing this ahead of time, because I am packing up and getting ready to go out of town on Jan 27, 2024.
I will be attending the
Sunshine State Book Festival in Gainsville, FL. For 7 hours (10 am to 5 pm), I
and another of MoonPhazes’ authors, John Lars Shoberg, will be talking to
potential customers, other authors, and other entrepreneurs about potentially
working together in some way. It is free to attend this event. This will be my
2nd year at this festival, and I have big hopes for it. But it is a
little daunting to handle such an appearance on my own, that’s why this time,
I’m taking John to help out. We will be at booths 163 and 164.
On February 17th,
2024, we will have a booth at Syfy Bartow in downtown Bartow, FL. This free-to-attend
street festival starts at 11 am and ends at 6 pm. I’m not sure where our booth
will be located, but if you go there, keep your eyes open for us. I will be
selling books and possibly some cosplay prosthetics. John is planning to go,
but he may spend the day with the Klingons. Or possibly he’ll split the time
between them and my booth.
We are also planning to
be at Necronomicon in Tampa, FL, this fall. It was held in September in 2023,
but I can’t find an updated website to get the dates for this’ year’s con. It’s
also too early for me to start pestering them for an author’s table yet. I’ll
try to keep you informed as the convention gets closer. John is thinking of
having some Klingon activities there, and he’s looking for other Klingons to
help out.
Right now, that’s all
we’ve got scheduled for this year. We did hear that Bartow con was a hit last
fall and is planning to do it again in 2024. If they do, I hope I can get a
table to sell stuff. They were pretty crowded last year!
We go to conventions
and book festivals to meet and talk to people who have read our books, and
hopefully sell them more books. If you would like to check out our books, the (trade)
paperbacks are available at MoonPhaze.com,
and the ebooks are available at MoonPhazeBooks.com
