In a past life (okay, so fairly recently) I ran a small booking agency and was a booking agent for about 60 different entertainment groups. This is a compilation of many of the things I learned on the process of working with Libraries, touring, and staying sane while doing both. It should be out early next year.

My other project, Captain Jac and the Seven Deadly Sins is a Steampunk Novel set in France. Earlier stories in this setting can be found in Steampunk Trails II (Bad Altitude) and my novelette Sapphire Eyes Are Smiling available on Amazon. The first draft of the novel should be finished by early February 2015.(less)

I am an avid science fiction convention attendee, and have been working at those types of conventions with musicians for many years. While doing that last year (2013) I fell into a pool of writers and haven't come up for air since!

Because of the things that I had seen and experienced I wanted to put together a basic handbook that was both useful and funny. I am also an avid D&D player and wanted to incorporate that aspect into the book as well. (Hence the title! Charisma +1) It was great fun to write and I hope to be able to put out Charisma +2 sometime in the next year or two. (less)
