- There is no handbook or "Book Tour for Dummies" available.
- Canada is a long way from San Diego.
- There are no Canadian book stores in southern California.
...and the piece de resistance... - "Who's on First" has no comparison to an Australian on the phone to a Hispanic book store owner in the United States talking about a Canadian themed book.

An Australian Writing About Christmas in Canada
Chicken Soup for the Soul have confirmed the title and release date of their next book with one of my stories: Christmas in Canada, 14 October 2014.
The irony of an Australian living in the United States writing about Christmas in Canada has not been lost, as planning for the book signing tour begins.

Mega Piranaha.
Mega Python vs Gatoroid.
Mega Shark vs Mecha Shark.

Countless previews for Sharknado 2.
I may be working too hard at producing good literature.

In Memorium
The day could not pass without mentioning that but the for the stroke of a pen, there go I.
In Memorium, Mark Laurence Goodwin, Constable of Police at the Brisbane Traffic Branch, died in the line of duty.
He left behind a wife, and two daughters, Megan and Alyse, aged 2 years and 8 weeks.
Rest In Peace, my friend.

A Body of Work
When a body of work is lost, there is not only the inevitable loss of accomplishment, there is the obliteration of years. No longer can anyone point to your digital footprint and say "check out this guy's work from 2007", instead, only those who have favored and followed the writer, will continue on a search for the writers work.
Much like when an old friend finds you on Facebook, the relationship is rekindled as though there was never a gap. But for those that have made the journey, most are suddenly lost.
When a body of work is lost, the fan base suffers, and the rebuild begins.
Sometimes the disappointment also breaks business relationships too, relationships founded on the body of work.
