Covering River Bottom Blues

While my publisher and I were plotting and planning cover ideas for River Bottom Blues, my wife sketched a cover design that just seemed to be the perfect wrap for my crime story. So, come April 2012 this just might be the first thing that potential readers see.

I think it's a pretty darned cool idea and am sure looking forward to seeing the final product hit the market. Pretty sure that I finished the book in '09, so finally getting it into the hands of those that wish to read it will sure be sweet. Remember, April 2012..."the good lord willing and the creeks don't rise".

BLUES FOR FOOD 2011

Time to tout a great day of music for a great cause once again. For the cover price of a non-perishable food item, some of the best musicians in the city will be offering up a tasty menu of blues. Always a fine time.

From Sonny Boy Terry here is the confirmed line up for the upcoming 2011 BLUES FOR FOOD FESTIVAL to be held on Sunday November 13 from 1PM - 1:30AM at Shakepeares Pub, 14129 Memorial Dr, Houston.
