"How do I set my laser printer to stun?"


I'm the author of 4 detective novels in the Hannibal Jones series - Blood and Bone, Collateral Damage, The Troubleshooter, and Damaged Goods, plus two action adventure novels, The Payback Assignment and The Orion Assignment. I'm active in several local writers organizations and I'm the current president of the Maryland Writers Association. I teaches writing courses at Anne Arundel Community College. By day I'm a public affairs specialist for the Defense Department. For more than a decade the American Forces Network carried my radio and television news reports.

Another Cool Review
I like to feature interesting web sites in this space, even when the site is my own. I always feature the feedback and reviews I receive on my web site, and today I’d like to introduce Eugene Booker.

I met Eugene during my most recent book signing at Washington Dulles International Airport. That was on July 25th, and he e-mailed comments to me just four days later. In his e-mail he described himself as “the Black/Filipino guy with glasses” but what I remember most was how enthusiastic he was and excited to meet an author in person.

When he did write to me he thanked me for singing his copy of The Troubleshooter and said he enjoyed it a great deal. He had a lot to say about the responsibility of Black men as role models and saw, as few seem to, how important that theme is in my novels.

Thank you, Eugene, for taking the time to tell me that you understood what I was trying to say. I’ve made your words the featured review on my web site this week.

Political overload
I get irritated and a little depressed by the amount of political rhetoric being thrown around in the mass media - and we haven't even had the primaries yet. Until then, these two guys are only the SELF-declared choices of the two major parties.

I was starting to wonder if the whole electoral brouhaha is even worth the trouble. Then a buddy reminded me that politicians and diapers have one thing in common. They should both be changed regularly... and for the same reason.

The Latest
I want to thank everyone who attended this month’s meeting of the Maryland Writers Association. You made me feel at home, and I did feel as though some folks benefited from my little talk on marketing novels.

And I must declare my cross town experiment a success. My signing at the Borders Express in St Charles Town Center Saturday evening went well. I wondered if it would impact Sunday’s event at the larger Borders Books and Music the next day about a mile away. Since I sold out at the second even, I think we can safely say it did not.

I had a great Saturday at the all-day seminar "A World of Fiction Writing" at American University, jointly sponsored by Washington Independent Writers. The speakers were great, especially the web-savvy team on the "Writers' Blogs," panel, and my fellow authors on the genre writing panel.

I had to leave a little early to get to the Borders Books & Music in the Capital Shopping Mall. I spent two hours there signing copies of Blood and Bone. I got a great welcome from those folks and will surely go back... when they've had time to order more books.

Then Sunday I paid a second visit to the Borders Express at the Dulles Town Center. Paired with fellow crime novelist Rique Johnson, we became more of an improv comedy team than a pair of writers, but together we signed a pile of books. There's more in my blog.

MEET ME TOMORROW IN VA

Tomorrow (Sunday) I'll return to Borders Express at the Dulles Town Center. Not only will I sign my books there from noon to 4:00 pm, but I'll be joined by fellow local mystery author Rique Johnson. Come see two authors for the price of one at 21100 Dulles Town Circle, Dulles, VA. If you live nearby, I hope to see you there!
