I wound up double-booking myself for the weekend of May 30, accepting an invitation to do a store signing and lecture at a library in Knoxville, Tennessee. When the conflict was discovered, I elected to stick with Knoxville because there are lots of guests for Virginia but only one me for Tennessee.
I very much apologize to the convention organizers and to any Virginia fans who were looking forward to meeting me. I assure you there are still PLENTY of terrific guests coming to Virginia and I cannot recommend the convention highly enough.
Kindly do NOT blame the GalaxyCon staff, who are a great bunch of folks. This was entirely my screw up and I’m sorry for any confusion.

Darn it. One of my favorite writers coming to Knoxville, which is so close to me, on the same day I’ve got tickets to see Paul McCartney in South Carolina. Poo. Well, I hope you enjoy Knoxville!! If you want some really good eats while in town, I recommend The Tomato Head in Market Square!
