I haven't been around for a while, both literally and bloggily, but now I'm back, and for anyone who's interested, this is what's been happening.
I spent half of November in Europe with my family. It started when Egmont Publishing bought the UK rights to Au Revoir, Crazy European Chick back in October, and I was able to have lunch with my new publishers in London before venturing on to Paris, Switzerland, Venice and Rome. The itinerary was also a research trip for the sequel to Au Revoir, which will be set in Europe, but it was also just a great time, and Venice is now my favorite city on earth. Meanwhile, foreign rights to Au Revoir have also been doing well, and as of now the novel has been sold to the UK, Germany, Russia and China.
My current project is the screenplay adaptation of Ryan Brown's novel Play Dead. I've been working hard on this one with some very good producers, and I'm pretty excited about the whole thing. There was a nice blurb in Variety last month about the deal, and they're still hoping to start shooting next year -- although these things are never certain.
Finally, Star Wars: Red Harvest is due out in a couple weeks. I'll probably do a couple book signings for it. Right now the only confirmed event is at Borders in Camp Hill, PA, in early January. I'll post the times and dates once it gets closer.
Hope you're all doing well, and have a great holiday.

Red Harvest Book signing in San Diego, pretty please....
Reading the excerpts of Red Harvest that have been released on Starwars.com, has been cool.
Death Troopers was an enjoyable read, but it looks like you absolutely nailed this one...
Adam! Great hearing from you. Hope your holidays are super terrific.
Peter, I'd love to do a signing in San Diego...what a great town.
Is January 8th still the only confirmed in store date for PA?
