Rhody (The Magic Video Game)

Hi friends,

Well, I am off to the eastern part of Murica tomorrow. And I can hardly contain my excitement. I believe that we all need a vacation some time during the summer, and this week is as good of a time to take advantage of that. I should be able to blog during the week. It will be a surprise, though. Therefore, you should not expect anything. Yet.

Well, I am finishing up on the third novel of The Jazzy Island of Dinosaurs, and I am hoping to start on the fourth novel of The Magic Video Game. I already have a lot of ideas for it, and I can't wait to get them out there!

Speaking of this series, The Magic Video Game and its "a day in the life" sequel, The Tennis Summer,  will be FREE on AMAZON for KINDLE from Friday August 7th and August 8th! Also, the sci-fi compilation, The Crazy Chicken Escapade, so please check them out by reading the summaries below!

The Magic Video Game: "Summer of 2006 begins in Valparaiso, Indiana, and two siblings acquire a video game that lets them go to the island of Wakahakai to meet a cool polar bear and his friends, including a forensics science fanatic, an athletic walrus, a crazy penguin, a distinguished snowman, a simplistic Eskimo pig, and a beautiful princess. Together, they must keep Darveda, Nelson, and Hilda from taking part of Winderplassic Estate."

The Tennis Summer: "It is summer of 2006 in Valparaiso, Indiana, and Levi and his friends have to prepare for the upcoming tennis season as freshmen in high school. With two new boys who join Levi's group of friends, a date gone wrong with his girlfriend, a renovation of his family's garage, and the beginning of many tennis practices, this summer proves to be very eventful."

The Crazy Chicken Escapade: "It is the summer of 2006, and three boys meet at a birthday party and realize that they have more in common than what they have previously thought. David Ingram, from Crown Point, Indiana, Andrew Grzedek, from St. John, Indiana, and Levi Cranston, from Valparaiso, Indiana, then play a magic video game at Levi's house. They all eventually meet Marty and his creature friends in Wakahakai, Dacston and his dinosaur comrades on Galavanti Island, and Rockybado, the King of Texamilio. Everyone finds out that the nearby chicken community has been taken advantage of, and they all set foot to free Radcliffe, the elected leader of the chicken community, as well as bring the overall group back to normal."

See you around!

That one kid (again)
