Oh
my
GOD, do I have some updates for you guys.
First off – typing
like
this
is just more fun.
Second – I may well have
lost
my
mind.
Because, see, not only have I decided to go ahead and release one book this year — that would be too easy — but I’ve decided to release FOUR.

So here’s what’s going on:

July 7 of this year, I released my first self-published book, THE WOODS. It is a dark YA fantasy, with a whole lot of whimsy and an extra serving of weird.

Currently – as in right now, MATTHEW TEMPLETON AND THE ENCHANTED JOURNAL is up for a publishing deal with Kindle Press. You can “nominate” this Middle Grade fantasy adventure by clicking here.

*Middle Grade is a pretty hard sell with Kindle Press, so if it doesn’t make, I will go ahead and self-publish – BUT I’d love you to “nominate!”

Speaking of Kindle Scout nominations, THANKS to everyone who did nominate the second in the The Fantastic Fable of Peter Able series, because it will be coming out this fall. Link to the Amazon page forthcoming! (THE TIMELESS TALE OF PETER ABLE)

AND finally – I’ve just ended a Kickstarter for my book, JUST CALL ME IS: AN INTRODUCTION TO MINDFULNESS (for kids). It was a smashing success, and so this book will be released December of this year.

When it rains, it pours. And I’m makin’ it rain. (Seriously, though, I’m fully aware that I’ve given myself this insane workload – I only hope you enjoy 🙂 )

And now – a nap.

So, today is the last day of my Kickstarter for “Just Call Me Is: An Introduction to Mindfulness” (for kids).

I am beyond excited to report that the Kickstarter made the goal (and then some!) so “Is” will be coming at you, available on Amazon (digitally and in print) this December!

For more info on the book, you can check out this ol’ blog post I wrote about it, or you can visit www.JustCallMeIs.com

There are still six hours left in the campaign, so if you want to pre-order your copy by backing the project, don’t wait!

Thanks, all. Happy reading!

My latest book needs your help, and it needs it now, so I’ll keep this short and sweet:

“Just Call Me Is” will introduce children to concepts that we, as adults, are becoming more and more familiar with. Things like meditation, presence, gratitude – all, of course, by way of a relatable (and, sure, somewhat snarky) guide, the reader’s Inner Self (IS).

It is a story, it is a journal, it is a book of exercises and tools, and most of all, it is a guide to living in presence for young people.

My son thinks the book is excellent. He was up late in his his bed with a flashlight doing the writing after reading the the whole thing in just a couple hours. And I’m impressed how well he is grasping a concept like higher self. I’ve struggled with explaining it to kids.
