Winter Writer’s Festival – Ravenna, Oh
I was fortunate to be involved with the 2021 Winter Writer's Fest in Ravenna, Oh. This year it was virtual, but we had a good time being remote. In the class I taught, I worked with kids to help spark their imaginations and help them make creative stories. We didn't...
Stranger things have happened – Jeff Strand
If you've read any of my other reviews or gotten emails, you know that I love the writings of Jeff Strand. For me, he's that author that just clicks. His style is always perfect - humorous and quirky. But, Mr. Strand usually writes for adults. Most of his stories have...
Riverstone Books – Pittsburgh, PA
This is a nice bookshop near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. There's a lot to like about this bookstore. The best thing is that the staff put index cards on the shelves for recommendations. That's always nice when the people that work at the bookstore can give personal...
Last Exit Bookstore – Kent, Oh
https://youtu.be/rVnJvuKXALU I've been going to Last Exit Bookstore since they opened. We haven't had a used bookstore in our area for quite a long time, so it's nice to have one close by. They opened close to KSU and catered to the college students - but they have...

The Twilight Zone – Season 2 Episode 29 – The Obsolete Man
The Twilight Zone has become one of those pop culture phenomenon that has well surpassed its original expectations. Started in the early 60's as an anthology show that would explore sci-fi, fantasy, horror and mash those together each week, it has lived on into...
Paperback Shack – Niles, Oh
This is a nice little bookstore, and it's in an area that doesn't have many bookstores. I've been wanting to visit because the owner used to do writing classes (which she may start doing again). When I stopped, a girl was there getting her senior pictures. I thought...
Jeff Strand
First, a bit of a warning - Jeff Strand is not a MG writer. His focus is on horror, and a lot of comedic horror. But I think his writing is ok for a lot of kids. Read on and decide for yourself. When I was 10, I started reading Stephen King, and he remains one of my...
Cupboardmaker Books – Enola, Pa
I'll make this easy - this is one of my all time favorite bookstores. Ever. 'Nuff said. If you are in the Harrisburg Pennsylvania area, it is definitely worth a detour to get to this store. They have SOOOOO many books. And lots of books that I hadn't found anywhere...
The Dragonlance Chronicles
For my 16th birthday, my aunt gave me a fantasy book. She really had no idea what I liked or what this book was about, she just knew I read a lot and that this was a new and hot book. Turns out it was one of the best birthday presents I ever got. The Dragonlance...

Testimonials
In a word, it’s fun. It is well written, energetic, and intelligent as well. Pick this up and delve into a new kind of magic
Ron
I have to start by saying that I am not a huge fan of middle grade books, but this was an interesting story between Rory, the town magician, and Samual, aspiring magician that wants to out Rory as having no magical tendencies.

In fact, the climax was something out of a movie and I had great fun reading the course of the epic battle.
All these reflect the author’s passion for writing and I hope he goes on to write & publish more books in the Town Magician series.
