Car Theft While Car Camping at the GalaxyCon in Columbus


Wild weekend…

Car Theft

To be clear, a car was not stolen—a car was broken into. About 80 feet from where I was parked and sleeping in the back of my vehicle. When I woke up, a man was pacing back and forth in the parking lot. This was unusual anyway, but more so considering it was super cold (low of 18 overnight). As it turns out, someone broke into his unattended vehicle overnight while I was sleeping nearby. They threw his stuff all over the parking lot.

Crazy.

It’s creepy to think that they might’ve walked up to my car and looked in on me sleeping. Ew.

But about the GalaxyCon…

Sleepwalker Angel Debuts at the Columbus (OH) GalaxyCon!

Pics from the Con

First, I saw some great cosplay costumes, including two of my favorite characters, Mabel and Dipper, from Gravity Falls. So much cool shit, you guys. Look at the photos from my trip. LOOK AT THEM!!!!!!

She read it in one day and said it was one of the best books she’s read in 2024!

I also debuted my new book. It has some work to go before it’s officially published, but a few folks walked away with advanced copies. Got a quick shot with one of the characters from the book holding the book.

Very meta.

Book Debut!

My new book debuted and got a warm reception!

I know I’ve been stringing you guys along saying, “It’ll be ready this summer…okay, this fall…okay, December…”

I get it. Sorry. I’m still fairly new at the publishing stuff. I forgot that coordinating with multiple people or entities takes more time than doing things on my own. At any rate, it’ll be ready next month and I’m taking pre-orders now!

Here’s a picture of me selling books with my buddy, Jody J. Sperling, from the POV of the artist across the aisle:

Get My New Book!!!

It becomes available officially in early January. Anyone who orders while supplies last will get a collectible. It’s a limited edition advance printing left over from the GalaxyCon in Columbus.

Go to my online shop and pre-order Sleepwalker Angel! The first handful of folks will get an advance printing before the book officially launches.

Good luck. Love you guys!
