AllanTopol.Com: Allan Topol's Newsletter DECEMBER 2003
Everything is on schedule for the January 6th release of Conspiracy. Judging
from the strong advance orders, we are expecting a large initial printing.
I have placed the prologue of Conspiracy on my website.
You can access it here.

With respect to possible appearances, on October 27th I taped an appearance
on a Montgomery County, Maryland cable television station that was aired several
times for a couple of weeks. On November 12 I spoke at the JCC book festival in
Washington. On November 13 several organizations invited me to Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania for an evening at which they had an audience of one hundred twenty.
As of now, here are my scheduled speaking and signing appearances for Conspiracy:
January 10, Barnes & Noble, Rockville, MD from 1-4 PM;
January 13, Barnes & Noble, 12th and E, Washington, DC, 12:30 PM;
January 22, Barnes & Noble, Citicorp Center, 53rd & Lex, 7 PM;
January 31, Brentano's, Century City, Los Angeles, from 3-5 PM; and
February 5, Barnes & Noble, Pikesville, Baltimore, MD, 7-9 PM.
To take advantage of the fact that Conspiracy involves a presidential election,
Penguin Putnam, my publisher, plans to give away copies of the novel to reporters
covering the Iowa caucus and New Hampshire primary in January.
One more bit of exciting news. I have begun writing a weekly column of news analysis
for a popular website which serves the military. You can access it at
www.military.com.
My columns deal with international geopolitical issues. The first three are entitled Is
It Really A New China?, Who Will Succeed The House Of Saud? and Why Turkey?. I hope
that you will visit this site and read the articles. There is no cost.
Or:
