Good morning, my awesome people!
Today’s episode is packed with all the fun, randomness, and life updates you didn’t know you needed.
First up, I’m thrilled to share some fantastic health news—I’ve been fighting the good fight with diabetes, and my A1C dropped faster than I ever expected. We’re talking record-breaking stuff here! Then, I take you on a little trip down memory lane as I introduce my teenage daughters to the best video game ever, EverQuest.
They loved it—so now I have more gamers in the house, which is kind of a big win for Dad.
I’ll also give you the scoop on The Underlings launching next week, and talk about some choices (pun intended) I’m making for the upcoming YA book Choices.
Oh, and Kristie—big shoutout to you for winning the referral contest! You’re going to spend an hour with me on Zoom, so get ready for some fun!
Now, if you're in a rush or just want a quick breakdown of the episode, here’s the “microwave version” of what I cover today:
The Microwave Version:
Open up about overcoming some old insecurities with a little humor and a lot of heart.
Health update: my A1C dropped from 12 to 7.3 in just 90 days—setting records with the doc!
Spent time introducing my teenage daughters to EverQuest, and now we have more gamers in the house. #DadWin
Updates on creative projects: The Underlings launches next week, and I’m still working on the cover of Choices.
Missed Spooktober this year, but I’m aiming for a badge with a Godzilla theme because…who doesn’t love Kaiju, right?
Big shoutout to Christy for winning the Life of Fiction referral contest—Zoom time with me coming up!
As always, closing with a little motivation for you: "You are more than you think you are!"
Thanks for hanging out with me this morning. You make life awesome!
