John M. Weiskopf reads from his novel THE ASCENDANCY
This past Saturday and Sunday, June 13 & 14, Barnes & Noble sponsored a book fair-reading event for G.L.A.W.S. (Greater Los Angeles Writers Society) at the Los Angeles Barnes & Noble store at The Grove Shopping Center. Thanks to all for your efforts, particularly the planners at B&N & G.L.A.W.S.
Today, I received an email from Ray Bradbury and his daughter booking him to speak in the Ray Bradbury Room at the Palms-Rancho Park Library on Overland in West Los Angeles on Saturday, February 21, 2009 at 3:30p. The event will be co-sponsored by the Rancho Palms Library and G.L.A.W.S (The Greater Los Angeles Writers’ Group).
Ray Bradbury
Mr. Bradbury will read from his new book WE’LL ALWAYS HAVE PARIS. Afterwards, he will sign copies of his book for the public and GLAWS members.
Things have been moving pretty fast the last couple of weeks:
Next Wednesday, Nov. 26, I will be doing a major book signing at the Main Clear Creek PX on Fort Hood, Texas. They have ordered 100 books and are doing a fair amount of pre-event advertising in local newspapers, radio, and military publications.
On December 12, I will be doing signings at Fort Sam Houston and Randolph Air Force Base. On December 13, I will be at Lackland Air Force Base. All of these are in San Antonio, Texas. Also during the trip to San Antonio, I will be stopping at Book People in Austin to sign some books which they will give priority placement in the store for holiday shopping.
I had bookmarks made for these events.
Meanwhile, I’ve been in correspondence with Ray Bradbury to try to set up an event co-sponsored by GLAWS (Greater Los Angeles Writers Society) and a local Los Angeles library.

This book authored by Stanton Friedman and Kathleen Marden, Betty Hill’s niece, was in 2007. I found the book to [...]

If part of our nation suffers an injustice or just bad luck, we all feel it, especially in the digital age that has brought us closer together in many ways, on many levels. Worldwide, we share everything, information, drama, voyeurism, pain, happiness. The [...]
“The Ascendancy” is a 21st Century fantasy-adventure about the volatile world in which we live today. Dr. Thomas Allen Nelson says, “An inspiring and compassionate twenty-first century epic adventure, part Paradise Lost and part Wizard of Oz… An evolutionary and cultural vision that blends the grim equations of survival and extinction with the regenerative powers [...]
Last night, Judy and I saw an incredible one hour show on Nova called “Ghosts of Machu Picchu.” If you get an opportunity to see it, do so. It is fascinating about the Incas who lived over 500 years ago and had the most remarkable skill of farming, architecture & design, ritual, military weaponry, knowledge [...]
Dr. John E. Mack is one-of-kind genius. The loss of his life when he was hit by a Czech drunk driver in London was our loss. John E. Mack was a Harvard professor of psychiatry, who wrote and won the Pulitzer Prize for A PRINCE OF OUR DISORDER, a biography of T.E. Lawrence, or Lawrence [...]
