I want to take a moment to offer congratulations to my pal Amy!  She has had a short story accepted for publication in the April 2011 issue of Pockets magazine, a Christian publication for kids aged 6-12. You can find out more about the magazine by visiting their website: http://pockets.upperroom.org.

Way to go, A.C.!  I’m so excited for you!!

I’m going to depart from my usual stumping of paranormal and fantasy romances to give a shout-out to my fellow MWW alum, D.E. Johnson. His first novel, The Detroit Electric Scheme: A Mystery, just came out in September, and Dan is finishing up the last few dates of his book tour this month.

I had a chance to hear Dan speak about his journey to publication at the Midwest Writers Workshop this summer and was intrigued by the premise of his book. I haven’t read The Detroit Electric Scheme yet, but it’s definitely on my To Read list!

If you’d like the chance to meet Dan and get a signed copy of his book, here are the remaining dates of the tour:

Monday, October 18 at 7:00 PM – M is for Mystery, San Mateo, CA
- Reading, Book Sales & Signing

Thursday, October 21 at 7:00 PM – The Bookman, Grand Haven, MI
- Reading, Book Sales & Signing

Friday, October 29 – Sunday, October 31 – Magna Cum Murder, Muncie, IN
- Panel participation, Book Sales & Signing

Best wishes to Dan on his debut novel — here’s hoping there are many more mysteries to follow!
