One for The Children, and One for The Adults.

Children first.

I think I must have first read Derek Keilty’s, Alien Science Bus, in some form or other, a couple of years ago. It was, if memory serves, around the time when I was writing, or had just written, I Met a Roman. I remember thinking then how much I liked it and how I thought it deserved to be a book.

Well today, ladies and gentlemen, it is.

Congrats, Derek!

And for the adults…, an interesting article by Roger Morris over at Vulpes Libris on the marketing of books. Interesting stuff, but I warn you: it does contain some strong language.
