As I mentioned yesterday, it would be impossible to share EVERYTHING one has to look forward to when attending the EPICNESS that is Dragon Con , so this countdown is a simple attempt to get your EXCITEMENT and ANTICIPATION at maximum levels, not to show a favoritism of any kind. So, if in the next 30days I’ve left something/someone out (which will happen) (this will be the ONLY disclaimer) it is not intentional. Each post will have a link to the convention’s website that will be available to you to explore at any point in time 🙂

Author Spotlight

I was born and raised in Glasgow, Scotland, which explains my inherent cheekiness and my sophisticated sarcasm gene. In the late seventies, my family immigrated to America where I’ve made a career out of my passions: reading, writing, and teaching.

I’m a professor of English and the Director of Creative Studies in Writing at Alverno College in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where, among other things, I conduct a seminar on the art of the mystery. I’ve been teaching at Alverno for over twenty five years (I began teaching when I was em… 14).

My crime fiction column runs every third Sunday in The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. My reviews also run regularly in The Minneapolis Star Tribune.. Oh, and I’m a regular contributor on books to WTMJ4’s The Morning Blend (Milwaukee’s NBC affiliate).

My essay “Time is Relative” is part of the HUGO winning anthology “Chicks Dig Time Lords.”
