It Came From Beyond the Sun

Mechanicsburg Mystery Bookstore owner Debbie Beamer approached me with a wonderful opportunity to speak to Sci Fi audiences this fall and winter when Jumpstreet of Harrisburg, PA sponsors The Big Read. The book chosen is that amazing classic of censorship and complacency, Fahrenheit 451. I'll be giving a keynote speech & discussion on November 21, 2009 at 2:00 PM at the newly reopened and fabulous Midtown Bookstore in Harrisburg. And, just to make things fun, I'll be autographing my new anthology of tabloid Sci Fi stories called, It Came From Beyond the Sun. The anthology includes 28 short stories, and a commentary each one, along with an introduction by none other than Sun editor Carla Chadick. So, fellow readers and writers, get in the Big Read by delving into Fahrenheit 451, and then come on out on November 21st. The event is free to the public and I promise my talk will be worth the price of admission.

Sounds great, Mike! What a wonderful idea to compile your stories published in The Sun! Catchy title too. ;)

Sounds like a cool event. I didn't know they reopened that store. Hope you sent us a reminder closer to the date.
