A new episode of my video newsletter is up in which I chat about Lehigh Valley Comic Con , Easton Book Festival , Witches Day Out, and Creatures, Crimes, and Creativity Con .‌I also read excerpts from my stories, “In the Span of a Heartbeat” published in Black Cat Weekly (Issue 176, January 2025) and “Isaac Geary’s Instant Utopia” published in Bright Mirror (Oddity Prodigy Productions, May 2025).‌One correction: I mention that the Lehigh Valley Comic Con has one-day shows every “August and July.” That should be every August and December. I blame lack of sleep.‌
