I am currently working on the sequel to my new book, The Adventures of Toby Baxter: The River Elf, The Giant, and the Closet. The sequel takes place a few months later, during winter break when Toby is called back through his closet into RiverHome.
The title: The Adventures of Toby Baxter Book 2: There's No Place Like RiverHome for the Holidays.
I'm enjoying the process and seeing where the story takes me.

My newest book, The Adventures of Toby Baxter: The River Elf, the Giant, and the Closet, grew out of three influences:
1) My love for fantasy adventure books. In some ways this is a fun-filled love letter to the genre and books like Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, The Hobbit, and The Chronicles of Narnia (upon which I based the subtitle of my book).
2) My work with Dr. Michael Gurian (Saving our Sons; The Purpose of Boys; The Minds of Girls) on rites of passage. I took that work and turned it into an engaging story, hoping to impart, as all good fantasy adventures do, some good values and character qualities to think about.
3) Being a grandpa. My grandkids inspired me to write this story.
