I will be signing copies of all of my works, including the #1 downloaded Horror novel on Amazon.com, Cinema of Shadows, and the first book of my Legacy of the Gods series, Poseidon’s Children.  While I have attended just about every HorrorHound in every location they’ve been held, this is the first time I have had a table at the Indianapolis show.  Please stop by and make this homecoming a true celebration!

Note:  As of right now, I don’t know exactly where I will be on that map up there.   I’m thinking it will be in that long, skinny dealer / celeb room on the right, but I may also be in the Maskfest room at the top.  Follow my on Twitter or “like” my Facebook page for more up-to-the-minute info as the show approaches.  Look forward to seeing all my faithful readers there!

It is with deepest regrets that, due to a situation beyond his control, Michael West will be unable to attend this year’s Horrorfind Weekend in Gettysburg, PA on August 31-September 2.   Mr. West had been looking forward to this event all year, and is most upset that he will not be able to meet with his friends and faithful readers.   In his entire career, Mr. West has  never missed an appearance before,  and he looks forward to making this unfortunate cancellation up to everyone as soon as possible.

He thanks you all for your understanding and hopes that everyone who attends Horrorfind will have a wonderful weekend!

My next appearance will be at the 6th Annual Paranormal Meet & Greet at the Historic Hannah House in Indianapolis, Indiana on Saturday, August 11.  I will be at the Indiana Horror Writers table from 12-4 pm with copies of my novels and other goodies.  Admission is free, so I hope to see all my faithful readers there!

I’ve just confirmed that I will be doing a book signing at That Book Place in Madison, Indiana on Saturday, October 27th…just in time for Halloween!  I will have copies of all my novels, including the new edition to my Harmony, Indiana series, Spook House!    Now, while I hope to have copies of Spook House in time for September’s HorrorHound Weekend in Indianapolis, this will be the first time that we will have a proper launch for the novel.   What better way to kick off Halloween week?

The information for the book store is below, along with all the info we currently have for the signing, but things do change, so please check the Schedule section of the website for more information as the date approaches.  Hope to see you all there!
