Lights...Camera...Action!!!




It’s kind of interesting to me, given my background in motion picture and video production - http://www.maxbooks.9k.com/about.html - that I’m finding potential interest in some of my published books and unpublished manuscripts, as possible theatrical motion picture projects.

This is likely a long selection process, and there are no guarantees that my books for boys will become G-Rated films one day, but there are two production companies taking a look at the present time.

This further interests me because, as I’m writing, I see the stories as films first, in my imagination, rather than the books for boys they are intended to become.

I’ll keep you informed, here, of future developments.

What Makes Your Books For Boys Unique?


I’m often asked about what it is that makes my books for boys different or unique. I think the best way to demonstrate that is to direct you to nearly 50 pages of reviews from my first 7 books for boys.

My agent is currently at the largest Christian Bookseller’s convention, meeting with editors over the next several days.

We are hopeful to add additional titles to my list of published books. The first 7 have been published, but there are another 28 manuscripts that have been completed.

Message In A Bottle Update


It has now been 2 months since I released a message in a large, clear, plastic bottle into the Rock River.

Who could have known the rains and floods that would follow?

It’s possible that the bottle has become hung up in debris, it could have left the river and gone over the banks with the floodwaters, or it could have made it to the Mississippi River, I have no idea.

Keep checking back, though, because I’ll post all the details if it is found. Whoever finds the bottle, and returns the message, will receive a copy of all of my books.

Next spring/summer, I have a plan for an even more spectacular promotion.

Stay tuned,
