Spent two weeks traveling through Germany, Switzerland, and Austria. Here's the first photo dump of my trip. My first stop was in Heidelberg, Germany. Heidelberg has a population of about 163,000 people, of whom roughly a quarter are students. The city is located about 48 mi south of Frankfurt.

While passing through Medicine Bow National Forest in Wyoming, I saw beautiful Fall colors.

It has arrived!

Welcome home to my newest book - an ARC (advanced reading copy) of Philip Fracassi's "Traps and Specters" ! It's Christmas in July! And opening this box brought about all those feelings of giddiness I had as a child sitting next to the Christmas tree and opening gifts. Just pure happiness! Sometimes it's the littlest of things that bring on the biggest smiles. Thank you to Philip Fracassi for not only the book, but for being an exceptional writer, and for just being a really cool (and nice) dude.

Something very special arrived in the mail today, and I can't wait to open it!! Any guesses?

I spent a good portion of the last three months staring at this face. Mostly in photos, once in person. I really enjoyed drawing his portrait. My reference photo was his photo on the back cover of his books, and the cover of his novel "Sarafina," which is a great book. I recommend it.
