I got 2 pieces of cool news for you today....

Cool News #1 - The rad fellas over at The Negative One podcast had me on to guest-host their latest episode. We discuss the glittery trash pile that is David Lynch’s 1984 movie adaption of Frank Herbert’s classic sci-fi novel, Dune. Check it out:

Cool News #2 - The Space Tripping Audio book is available for pre-order at Audible/Amazon now! The release date is June 6th. Because your eyes shouldn’t get to have all the Space Tripping fun. It’s time to share the love with your ears. Here’s the link:

Hi all my buddies! (Can I call you my buddies? I totally feel like we’re buddies at this point)

So, Space Tripping has officially launched! And honestly, it’s been awesome. I’ve been greatly humbled by the support I received at our first two book signings... Look at this picture!

That’s Space Tripping! On an end-cap at a Barnes and Noble! How cool is that?

If you’re getting this email, then you helped make this happen. Words cannot do justice to how grateful I am. Thank you.

And, hey, if you’re in the Chicago area, we have one more book signing scheduled. It is this Friday, March 31st. We’ll be at:

City Lit Books, 2523 N Kedzie Blvd, Chicago, IL 60647 - 6:30-8:00pm

If you’re in the area, I hope you’ll come say "Hi!" (And do it just like that... literally shout "Hi!" at me)

Byeeeeeeeeeee...

Psst... hey... hey you... yes you, my wonderful supporter of Space Tripping... you want to hear some really cool news?

Audible has officially signed a deal with my most benevolent publishing overlords at Inkshares. Space Tripping is going to be adapted into an audio book! I know! Crazy, right?

But wait, the fun stuff doesn’t stop there. We’ve got a couple of pending events that you should check out. If you’re into Twitter, I will be taking over Young Entertainment Magazine’s official twitter account for two hours this Thursday March 2nd (4-6pm Eastern). I anticipate many a hijink to occur.

Sidebar: Is the singular of hijinks, "hijink"? You know, for the casual miscreant who doesn’t have time for a full days worth of mischief. They can sneak in a quick hijink during lunch hour. Anyway, where were we?

We’’re also working on some signing and launch events at bookstores in both the greater Chicago and Cincinnati areas.

Currently, we are booked (pun very much intended) at the Barnes & Noble in downtown Naperville, IL on March 18th and at City Lit Books in Chicago on March 31st.

I will also be getting interviewed on the Nick Digilio show (WGN Chicago) sometime in the near future. Be on the lookup for future updates.

You can always check out spacetrippingbook.com for additional details as they evolve.

Thanks again, friends.

Hey there you wonderful human being,

We are less than a month away from the official release of Space Tripping (March 7th)! But you all, as original project backers, will be getting your copies any day now. You may notice something missing from those copies... my signature.

I would love to still sign each and every one of your copies, Obviously it will be no problem for those of you I’ll see in person in the near future. For everyone else, if you want to send me your copy, I would be more than happy to sign and return it. Feel free to email my "writer address" at ramblingwaffle@gmail.com (The backstory for that name is long and uninteresting... trust me, it’s not worth the time it takes to explain it). But I also understand that’s not the most convenient solution. So, to make up for it, I will be sending you all a little something later in the month.

Now, on to the fun stuff! We are working on some book launch events and interviews with various media outlets in the Chicago and Cincinnati areas. Be on the look out for another update with details. I’m going to be counting on you all to lend support whether it’s by showing up, tuning in, or forwarding on the info to your respective social media circles.

I can’t believe it’s about a year since I was bugging you all to pre-order a copy. And now we’re about to send this book out into the world.

Thank you all so very very much,

Pat

Hello all you wonderful people who helped make my dream come true!

Seriously though, I can’t find the words to express how much I appreciate your support. "Thank you" just does not do justice to how grateful I am.

I figured it was time to drop you all a line to let you know where things stand. We are currently in the midst of the editing & design phase. I can’t say enough nice things about the folks over at Inkshares. They have been tremendous at every step of this process.

I’m working with their editing teams in order to spit-shine Space Tripping into the glorious pile of silly misadventure and immature humor that it is. They’ve also brought in a designer to create some gorgeous art for the final book cover. The editing/design phase should take us through the summer. After that, the Inkshares sales people take Space Tripping to market in the hopes of securing shelf space in as many bookstores as possible.

When it’s all said and done, you should expect to receive your copy of Space Tripping around the new year. I know this seems like a long time... trust me, no one wants this book to be out in the world asap more than me... but I have to hand it to the people at Inkshares. They do things the right way.

In the mean time, if you read the first chapter and you’re just dying to know how it is a drunken alien pilot crashed on Earth in the first place, you can click on the link below to read a short story prequel:

Jopp’s Folly

Alright, that’s all for me tonight.

Cheers
