Oath of Loyalty has been on shelves for more than two months now, and I just recently finished up the last of the tour appearances and the podcast interviews. Next month I’ll share links for all the interviews in case you missed a few segments. While I was on the road promoting the book in September, I met a lot of interesting people—the very thing that makes these trips fun.
Bouchercon
My tour always kicks off in Twin Cities, Vince Flynn’s home. This year, I went to Minnesota a week before the Oath of Loyalty launch to participate in Bouchercon, one of the largest writing conferences in the country. There was no lack of talent roaming the halls, and I’m not just talking about all the published writers. I also got to know quite a few people who are in the process of crafting their first novel. It was inspiring to see their passion and fun to remember what it felt like to be in the thick of that process.
