Booksigning/X-Men Origins
My book signing at Hardy, Arkansas went very well. I was quite happy and met several new folks. I had several patients from Hardy area when I worked at the Ozarks Medical Clinic at Highland, AR, I guess that helped.
Also, I recently saw the movie X-men Origins, Wolverine. I thoroughly enjoyed it in spite of the many bad reviews I have seen. As a fan of the comic books, I was quite pleased to learn more of Wolverine's past as that has always been a mystery. What was revealed in the film did not jive 100% with the comics but that is to be expected. Enough jived to make it enjoyable. And I can recommend it in good conscience.
My next book, Dark Moon, written with Canadian Author Beverley Batemann, is due out in December and will probably debut in January at Words/Afterwords in Hardy since that was a good experience. Writing with a pardner is a unique experience, especially when you have never met the pardner. Beverley lives in Canada and I live in Arkansas and we have met only over the internet. However, I enjoyed writing the book with her and can recommend having a writing pardner. For me, it is quite helpful in that it keeps me going. Dark Moon took less than a year to write and the Last Guardian took decades. Steve
