And while you're shopping,  don't forget Danica Panica and the Milligan Creek series as well!

​Although the series has been available from Bakken Books for some time now, you can finally purchase them from Amazon.com and Amazon.ca. Here's a brief description:

Danica Panica has a problem that she’s afraid to tell people about—because being afraid is exactly her problem!The list of things that frighten Danica is endless, but a few of them include: snakes, spiders, dogs (and some cats), horses, fish, bees, mice, germs, deep water, heights, darkness, loud noises, open spaces, closed spaces, thunderstorms, flying, needles, pills, doctors, nurses, dentists, hospitals, clowns, ghosts, and . . . beards (yes, beards, especially the thick bushy kind).
Thankfully, Danica has her loyal Yorkshire terrier Clark to help her through it, not to mention her parents, though her younger brother Ivan (“the terrible”) is another matter . . .
Join Danica in each hilarious adventure as she sets out to defeat yet another fear, as only Danica can. Perfect for girls ages 6–9, this delightful series will inspire young readers to conquer their fears, appreciate their uniqueness, and live a fuller, richer, and more enjoyable life.

As mentioned in a previous post, I'm writing a history about the groundbreaking comic book maxi-series Crisis on Infinite Earths for TwoMorrows Publishing. It's due to come out next year, the 40th anniversary of the series. I'm having the time of my life doing a deep dive on one of my greatest passions--comic books! I'm also just over 13,000 words into the manuscript, averaging about 1,000-1,200 words per day whenever I'm able to work on it. Unlike writing fiction, writing this book is an exacting process, especially considering how obsessive comic book fans can be about details. So, I feel a lot of pressure not only to get everything right but also to go as deep as possible into every aspect of the topics I'm writing about. Sometimes it feels like I'm writing a master's thesis or a PhD dissertation. At any rate, I'm learning a ton, I'm loving every minute of it, so far at least, I think it's one of the best things I've ever written.

Just for fun, below is a photo of Crisis scribe Marv Wolfman (r) and Len Wein (l), who helped Marv in the early stages of plotting Crisis and who also oversaw the publication of Who's Who in the DC Universe, taken sometime in the early 1980s, shortly before Crisis​ came out. 

It's great to see the first three books in the Game On series selling well on Amazon and from Bakken Books. I finished writing book 4, "Totally Tilted," last week, and I just knocked off the first chapter of book 5, "Level Up Live," yesterday.  Hopefully, I'll be able to finish book 5 by the end of July, then it's on to book 6, the final item in the series. So, hop on board now, and you won't have long to wait to see how the story plays out!

The first three books in my new series, Game On, are among the top new releases on Amazon's Children's Computer Game books. You can get them here. 

Here's a brief description: When Canada’s largest national fishing tournament makes a stop at Lark Lake, located just outside the small prairie of Milligan Creek, Saskatchewan, everyone gets in on the action. They’re all hoping to catch the big one—not to mention one of the many cash prizes up for grabs. But a long-simmering grudge threatens to derail everything, as does a protest of the tournament, led by local environmentalist Henrietta Blunt. Hilarity and chaos ensue as the anglers hit the lake. And it isn’t long before it all goes off the hook, as most things in Milligan Creek usually do!

Available now on Amazon as a paperback, hardcover, or ebook.

The first three books in my new series about a group of teens who are battling to achieve video game greatness are now available on Amazon and will soon be available on Bakken Books.

Here's a brief description of the series.

The series is called "Game On!" and it's for kids ages 8-12, particularly those who are into video games. Here's a brief overview from the publisher's website.

The first three books in a new six-book series called "Game On" that I'm writing for Bakken Books, is coming out later this spring. Here's a rough sketch for one of the interior illustrations in book 1, The Stream Team.

I just made a deal to write a book about one of my favorite topics ever--comics! To give you a hint as to what specific comic book series I'm writing about, take a look at the photo below. If you don't recognize the face, the artwork he's holding up may give you a clue.  More news soon!
