Appearances

SCBWI

Society of Children's Book Writers & Illustrators
Want a signed copy of one of my books but can't make it to one of my appearances? Just head over to my website for the link or you can find it on my author page at Beventi. It’s a biscotti-palooza! It's finally warming up enough for some weekend road trips. I'm open to suggestions in the mid-Atlantic region. Does anybody have some great events or hidden gems they can clue me into? J.J. Ashford's escalating night terrors are far more than they seem. Thanks to a secret nanotech research project that's gone horribly wrong, she’s now the only way out for a squad of soldiers trapped in a virtual reality hell. My letter “E” pick for this year’s A to Z Reading Challenge was EREBUS by Michael Palin. Yes, that Michael Palin of Monty Python fame. Palin is an avid traveler and a keen historian, and he leaves no detail unexplored as he leads us through the life and loss of the great HMS Erebus, a former bomb ship commissioned in 1826 for the royal navy of Great Britain. In 1839 it was refitted to be an exploration vessel, and explore, it did. After spending a few years sailing around the Mediterranean, it headed for the Arctic, where, on one voyage, Captain James Clark Ross discovered the magnetic North Pole. From there it went on to Antarctica, where Captain Ross discovered the Ross ice shelf, and named Mount Erebus on Ross Island, off the coast of Antarctica for his fine ship. The researchers on these trips conducted studies in magnetism, and returned with vital oceanographic data as well as collections of plants and birds. Around this time eight years ago, I started scribbling out this story on the back of a cafeteria menu while sitting in my hospital bed. Writing made me feel like I just might get through this terrible thing that happened, so I did it every day, even if only a little. Six literary awards later, and I'm still here, still writing. Thank you for giving BLUE a home.
