29 Palms Book Festival – November 7-9, 2025

On November 7–9, 2025, I was part of the Twentynine Palms Book Festival promoting ‘Invertiverse‘ and selling signed copies—all of which SOLD OUT. Postcards with some of the novel’s illustrations, stickers, and the soundtrack CD were also available. “Dennis,” a dog-sized pet dinosaur character from the novel, was also there—offering free business cards from his pet bowl. On the second night, I gave a special reading from the novel’s prologue during the ‘Voices Of The Desert’ event. The entire festival included a great community of authors & readers and it was wonderful getting to know everyone!
