BREAKING NEWS! I am now a listed guest of The Official Star Trek 2017 Convention taking place at Rio Suites Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada!
I will be part of Creation Con’s celebration of Star Trek Discovery on the con’s opening day, Wednesday, August 2.
Joining me will be my longtime partners in creative mischief, Dayton Ward and Kevin Dilmore, as well as many members of the cast and creative staff of Star Trek Discovery itself. I’ll be there to talk about my upcoming novel Desperate Hours, the first original novel based on the new show — and I’m told we’ll be revealing its cover and its descriptive blurb live at the Discovery publishing panel.
Here is my official schedule for the show:
Wednesday, August 2
5:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. — Pavilion (Main Theater)

Inside Trek: Star Trek Authors & Their Books

3:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. — Away Mission Booth (Amazon Room)

Inside Trek: David Mack, Author
I’ll be chatting one-on-one with Jordan Hoffman, host of Engage!, the official CBS.com Star Trek podcast, about my work for Star Trek, what I look for in a Star Trek story, and whatever else comes to mind in this half-hour candid talk.
After that, I will just be haunting the convention, lingering in the bar, or perhaps writing my new novel in a cabana by the pool. Feel free to approach me (as long as I’m not eating) for autographs and idle chatter.
