Just announced on Facebook and Instagram: I will be an author guest at Phoenix Fan Fusion, from Friday, May 24, 2024, through Sunday, May 26, 2024. This will be my first-ever visit to the state of Arizona, and I’m looking forward to it. More details about my schedule can be found here.
This coming weekend is HELIOsphere 2024 in Piscataway New Jersey. Two of the author guests are myself and veteran Trek screenwriter ("The Trouble with Tribbles," "BEM") and novelist (The Galactic Whirlpool, Encounter at Farpoint) David Gerrold. Among the programming items are me interviewing David Saturday at 11.30am.
My full schedule is here. I'll also have a table in the dealer room.

Thanks again for being so kind as to sign all my books - was great to see you.
Adam Nimoy has a number of readings publicizing his memoir The Most Human: Reconciling with my Father, Leonard Nimoy scheduled (saw them on his Instagram page). Not sure if this is considered Trek literature, but there is some discussion of his father's work in Star Trek.
This weekend (Friday, May 24–Sunday, May 26) I will be an author guest at Phoenix Fan Fusion in Phoenix, AZ.

Anyone signing at the LV Con in August?
Officially? Lots of actors, probably. Creation Con doesn't invite authors as official guests to its events.
As @David Mack said, Creation doesn't view authors as relevant or worth their time. One time, a couple of decades ago, they were forced by a studio (The Jim Henson Company) to invite an author (me) to one of their official conventions (for Farscape), and once I got there, they didn't give me any of the things I was promised, and tried to blame Henson for it. (Since I dealt with Henson on a regular basis, this wasn't even a very good lie........) I have not attended a Creation show since, and -- despite my involvement with both Supernatural and Star Trek -- have stuck by that.
There are many reasons why I would like to go to the Vegas con, but knowing I won't be particularly welcome there as a guest, and even if I am, I won't be treated like a guest, makes it really hard to scrape together the enthusiasm for going, especially since there are literally dozens of other shows that are more than happy to have me.
I understand, but am disappointed that authors are treated that way.
Me, too, but as I said, plenty of other cons actually want me there, and I'd rather support them......
I will be a guest at Dragon Con 2024 over Labor Day weekend in downtown Atlanta. I'm doing a ton of panels, precisely none of which are on the Trek Track. I have no idea why this is so, you'd have to ask the track directors.
In any case, you can find my full schedule here on my blog. I'm doing lots of cool stuff! Just nothing Trek related......
Other Trek folk who will be there include fellow word-slingers Kevin J. Anderson, Esther M. Friesner, Dan Jolley, Terry Matalas, John Jackson Miller, and Thom Zahler; actors Kirk Acevedo, Santiago Cabrera, Ashlei Sharpe Chestnut, Christina Chong, Eugene Cordero, John deLancie, Jonathan Frakes, Bruce Horak, Michelle Hurd, Walter Koenig, Gates McFadden, Anson Mount, Melissa Navia, Tawny Newsome, Babs Olusanmokun, Ethan Peck, Brent Spiner, Aaron Stanford, Todd Stashwick, Fred Tatasciore, and Garrett Wang; artists Tim Bradstreet and John Picacio; and scientist Dr. Erin Macdonald.
