I received a surprise yesterday evening when I was tagged in this article by the Portalist on 16 books like Harry Potter. To have Gidion‘s Hunt included in this list was flattering not just for the comparison to Harry Potter but to share space in this article with some other excellent books. Thanks to the Portalist for this. bit.ly/2UDjvQf

One of the coolest birthday gifts I‘ve EVER gotten. My wife Sheri got a friend of ours to knit a red bat, because Gidion‘s lucky shirt has a red bat on it. She‘s insisted we have to name the bat Gidion. My wife rocks! #HappyBirthdayToMe #GidionKeep #RedBat
Gidion‘s getting some company in the vampire hunting business. I‘ve had a gift card burning a hole in my wallet since Christmas and couldn‘t wait to buy Kiersten White‘s new novel Slayer! Looking forward to her trip into the Buffy, the Vampire Slayer universe.

I‘m dressing up as Gidion Keep, the main character from my novels. It‘s for a “Dating Game with Books” at ConGregate 2018. I get to pretend to be Gidion. If the reader picks Gidion for their date, they‘ll win a free copy of my book. At my wife‘s suggestion, I‘m wearing my son‘s Converse shoes. Didn‘t shave my beard, though. Gotta draw the line somewhere. #GidionKeep #ILookLikeAHobo
For today‘s #ManicMonday, @JoScho did a collage theme choosing a single color with four items (food, clothing item, toy, and book cover). I went with red for some blatant self-promotion. #NoShame #GidionKeep
I joined the guys from the “Prose & Cons” podcast for their latest episode today, along with one of my best friends and fellow writer Phil Hilliker. I talked about my “Gidion Keep, Vampire Hunter” series, critique partners, James River Writers, and the infamous Twilight Saga (yeah, I go there).

Hit a @Litsy milestone yesterday. Cracked the 10,000 mark. I originally got into Litsy because I wanted to find a social media I enjoy that isn‘t toxically overpopulated by other writers. Yes, I wanted to promote my writing (probably should promote more), but instead, I‘ve gotten a lot more reading done, did a reading challenge for the first time, found new podcasts, made friends, and discovered some books & authors I love. Glad to be here.
Couldn‘t resist turning myself into a Funko Pop like so many others have. Decided to sport the colors of my book covers. Only thing really missing is me wearing a vest. And let‘s be honest, that dog is nowhere near as cute as my Wicket. #FunkoPop #GidionKeep #WicketsWorld
