Listen to Chapter 1 with your kids! Or try it by yourself. Adults have loved it too. Perfect for fans of Percy Jackson or Fablehaven! How did I do narrating? #Audible #mglit

Am I a bad person? Scene: My daughter had a fidget toy in the car. Daughter 1 to daughter 2: can you hand me the fidget? Me: Actually, they prefer to be called little toys, not fidgets.

I grew up watching Hoosiers and Rudy. My current favorite underdog movie is Here Comes the Boom. In fact, I'm watching it right now. And Holly Holy is now my favorite Neil Diamond song because of it.

My first grandbaby will be born this week. I'm so excited to meet him. God is good!

Just an #IndieAuthor killin' it with this fantastic summer read. You and your young reader will love it.

I wrote a book. Kids and adults have really liked it. You should read it. Marketing done ✅

I sold 18 books at a farmers market this weekend and I've got the sunburns to prove it. What does a sunburn prove? 18 sunburns equals 18 books. Duh!

I received my first 1-star review, a rite of passage. Can I infer he liked it since he was upset I didn't conclude the 5-part series in one book? I don't want to argue, but book one has a solid ending. The second image shows a similar sentiment but a higher rating.

Get it? #mglit #kidsbook #summerreading #wasps

Remember, without the word "butt" you cannot have "butterscotch." ~Inspirational?

I love getting a new shipment of books...and so does Annabelle. She seems a bit annoyed that I'm interrupting her box time, though. Sean Dirts and the Hidden City #mglit #summerreads

Incoming joke: Why are boring people so boring? . . . Because they lack sufficient funs. #pun #funny

It’s more difficult to write on jury duty days, but I do enjoy being downtown. #saltlakecity

I still think it's pretty cool that someone that I don't know recorded this review of my book. Check it out. Write Now: Sean Dirts and the Hidden City by Don Shirts youtu.be/ZalSW8UtUXs?si… via @YouTube

Sometimes it's hard to get my brain into writing mode, but then I remember how many kids and parents have asked me when book 2 is coming out...and then it's even harder. Just kidding. I love that so many people are excited to see Sean's story continue. Continue it will.
