My book signing at Borders in Manassas was short but sweet, both because I sold out of books an hour before the scheduled end time. Lots of Virginia readers will get Hannibal Jones novels for Christmas this year.



The follow-up event at Baltimore Washington International Airport was also fun, and informative. One traveler told me he was very glad to meet me because he encountered my novels at work. He said that he taught remedial reading at a Tennessee prison and that my books were…

This writer’s life has certainly had its ups and downs lately. One high point was getting to visit with a unique book club. Most clubs I’ve spoken to had only female members, but this group was made up of a dozen couples. What’s more, the meeting I attended was their 20th anniversary! I was…

In addition to the in-person appearance I did…
