I love knock-knock jokes, so I made up one to start off my blogging presentation for the Greater Lehigh Valley Writing Group next weekend. I tried it out on Senior Management, who promptly forbade me to use it, so I thought I'd post it here instead (CAUTION: You should probably hold onto your sides before reading any further).
"Knock, knock!"
"Who's there?"
"Ira."
"Ira who?"
"Ira writer, what do you do?"
Moving on:
PHILCON - Cherry Hill, NJ Nov 19th-21st
I'm excited about attending Philcon this weekend.
I signed up for a two-hour first chapter workshop on Saturday afternoon (sent in the opening of Waking up Jack Thunder). Unless they tear it apart completely, I plan to pitch the novel to an agent later this month.
I'd like to go to a couple of panels, though I've not decided which ones yet. Most of the weekend I'll be at the GSHW table in the dealer's room, signing copies of the Fur-Face eBook-on-a-CD and I are a writer! mugs.
If you're going, I hope to see you there.
If you've gotten over the shock of my 'Ira writer' joke, and you think you have a better one, I'd love to hear it.

Sadly, I will be missing Philcon due to family obligations. Have a good time!
