Greetings from Arla!

So many big things are happening in Arla with Catch-It, Penny, and the gang. And even bigger things out in the real world. 


Let’s start with Arla . . .

First: You’ve all been asking, and I have some news to report. The sequel to They’re Not Here to Save Us is finished with its first round (of many) of editing. Now, it’s in the hands of a trusted few who will mark it up in red and send it back to me.

I don’t want to give away too much, but I will say that I tried to push the boundaries with the characters you came to know and love in TNHTSU. Don’t be surprised if your favorite character from the first isn’t your favorite character in the second. And if the first book warns against trusting in authority, the second book asks ‘Well, who can you trust?’

There’s also a handful of new characters including a new baddie which I think you’re just going to love.

It’s still early days, but I’ll keep you all posted as the project moves along.


And if you haven't picked up your copy of They're Not Here to Save Us, what are you waiting for???


Second: New ‘Fear the Recruits’ shirts are here! Rep your favorite book of the last year and grab yours from the shop.



Third: If you haven't already, I encourage you all to leave a review of TNHTSU on Amazon and Goodreads. The reviews are still coming in from all over and it’s so cool to hear what people are saying. 


Kirby on Goodreads: I was obsessed with this book . . . I would read another book in this series in a second.


Thanks, Kirby. Stay tuned!


Joseph R: Very much felt like being inside of a video game


Hell yeah, Joe. I’d play that video game



On a personal note . . .



I got married! Just over a month ago, Tori and I said ‘I do’ in front of family and friends and promised to spend the rest of our lives together. I’m not a romance writer, so I’ll just say it was the best day of my life. I replay the first time I saw her in her wedding dress over and again in my head. 

So, we got married and days later, we officially moved the last of our stuff into our new home because why not plan a wedding and a move at the same time??? Then, we jetted off to Punta Cana for our honeymoon.



Let’s see . . . am I forgetting anything else . . . 


Oh, yeah


We’re having a baby! Lil’ boy Kidd is coming in early 2025! He already has his first Phillies onesie and Spider-Man toy. We are over the moon right now. Life is awesome.


That’s all for now. Be sure to leave a review or two for TNHTSU and pick up your Fear the Recruits tee.
