One week until my kiddie book is out in the world! For any DC locals who are readers, I'll be at the Gaithersburg Book Festival on May 20. Now, I'm not really the reason to go. They have a huge number of best selling authors across all genres and nonfiction, but if you do come please say hi. It really is a pretty big deal. I was surprised. Last year 50,000 people attended the free one day event. It's so big they arrange a free bus to tote readers off from a nearby mall.

Despite my book being about a rain cloud, I really hope for perfect weather.

Edit: And if I'm going to be shameless I might as well name the book in case there are any parents or grandparents lurking

Got mine today, Mrs SO is taking it to the God Daughter in two weeks. Good work, I found myself reading the entire thing, or maybe I'm just a big kid.

Thank you so much. And it makes my day that you enjoyed it!

Edit: And if you are the kind of person who reviews books please consider dropping a note on Goodreads or Amazon. I probably shouldn’t ask, but we’re friends and word of mouth is how books grow.

New fodder-

Simply Lies- David Baldacci

Only the Dead- Jack Carr (book 6)

I'm behind on The Terminal List series. Have not read the latest one that came out in August.

Otherwise, I'm in study mode, reading beer-related books that would bore everyone.

This current one is prescient as related to current events. Scarily so.

I used to be a rabid reader but I've just gotten away from it. Part of it is the time I spend on the site if I'm being honest. One of the things I'm most looking forward to in retirement in a couple years is all the books I'll have time to read. My wife is a constant reader.
