And for those attending Ray's birthday party on Sunday there may still be a few copies of Echoes available.

This promises to be a very special event:

Sam Weller has done more for Ray Bradbury's legacy than just about anyone. No wonder Ray lights up when Sam walks in the room!

My copy from the event arrived some days ago and its a genuine delight. Thank you to all who hosted and coordinated the June 26 event and to all the signers.

Some of us still have sore feet from that event.

Professor Sam Weller will host a discussion of his new book, LISTEN TO THE ECHOES: THE RAY BRADBURY INTERVIEWS, this Sunday, September 19, at 1:30 pm at the Roselle Public Library in Roselle, Illinois. Weller will sign copies of his books immediately following.

On Monday, September 21 at 6 pm, Weller will present the paper, "Ray Bradbury and the Long, Gothic Shadow of Edgar Allan Poe" at Spoon River College in Canton, Illinois.

Both events are open to the public.

Sam Weller and Ray Bradbury live in conversation tonight in Pomona, California! They may announce two new projects they are working on.

Hi,

Did they announce the new projects?

Thank You.

Professor Dan Portincaso of the English Department at Waubonsee Community College will interview Professor Sam Weller tomorrow. The conversation will get into Weller's research and writing process on THE BRADBURY CHRONICLES and LISTEN TO THE ECHOES. Those in Chicago should join us. Book signing will follow!

Cheers,

John
