The Perfect Christmas Game is here!
The Perfect Christmas Game is a turn-based card game for the whole family to enjoy over the holidays.
When everyone gets together, eating cookies by the fire while it snows outside and someone says, “Hey, let’s play a game,” but no wants to play Monopoly because it takes too long, Pictionary makes everyone angry, and Mousetrap is missing pieces, you scratch your head and think to yourself, What is the perfect game to play at Christmas?
Now you have the perfect answer.
(And the perfect Christmas present.)
Is it a game about the perfect Christmas, or a perfect game about Christmas? Both! Perfect for the whole family (ages 12 and up), this is a game of luck, skill, strategy, memory, and holiday cheer. It’s fun, funny, family-friendly, and it goes perfectly with those cookies and that crackling fire.
The goal of the game is to collect the most unopened presents before Christmas Morning—of course, there is a lot more to it than that! For more details, how-to-play videos, and a free digital download of the rulebook, visit The Perfect Christmas Game page.

Where Magic Is Missing is available on Amazon
At the end of their first semester of summer school in the Enchanted Forest, Orrin asked Professor Gnut when school would start again.
“It will be here before you know it,” the old wizard replied.
And so it is—the long awaited sequel to What Magic Is Not is here at last, but if Orrin and his classmates thought their second semester would be anything like the first, they are in for a wild surprise.
This time around, the class is bigger and so is the adventure as Professor Gnut leads his students on a whirlwind road trip far from the Enchanted Forest, racing to prevent a catastrophe that could spell doom for the entire kingdom.
While the class faces greater dangers, stranger puzzles, and more confuddling philosophical conundrums than ever before, the Professor never misses an opportunity to teach his eager students not what they wish to learn, but what they need to know, and though everyone must follow their own path in the end one universal lesson prevails: where magic is missing, that is where a wizard must go.

I haven’t updated this main page for a while, but that doesn’t mean I’m not burning the midnight oil behind the scenes! Nary a day goes by that I don’t work on one of the following projects. Hopefully I will have some big, exciting updates ready soon.
Added a Game Design Gallery to showcase individual pieces that I finish on a semi-weekly basis for King of the Mountain.
The sequel to What Magic Is Not is coming along nicely. Should be done in the next few months and I will have a big, juicy update ready for that when the time comes!
Volume II of The Alleys of Olde Architecture NEEDS to be published soon, but I am still working on the artwork for the cover. As soon as it is ready, I will post it here and start hawking the book on Amazon.

Volume I of The Alleys of Olde Architecture is available on Amazon!
The Alleys of Olde Architecture is a mind-bending, Grimmly-Gothic Fantasy saga like nothing you have read before, and not for the faint of heart.
Here’s the pitch:
When her father is arrested in the middle of the night and confesses to a crime that cannot possibly be true, fifteen-year-old Alley a’Door has one day to climb to the top of the mountain, free her father, and clear his name—but how do you save a man who is dead-set on orchestrating his own execution?

What Magic Is Not is available on Amazon!
What Magic Is Not reads like Wayside School meets Hogwarts when a colorful class of boys and girls (and one young troll) attend summer school in the Enchanted Forest with the eccentric Professor Philonius Gnut, a crafty old wizard who, despite his students’ best efforts to learn all sorts of ill-advised spells and sorcery, is more interested in teaching them what magic is not.
Summer school in the Enchanted Forest is just like you would imagine, full of wonder, humor, and heartwarming friendships. The children chase frogs, go on field trips deep into the woods, shoot bows and arrows, battle ensorcelled knights with wooden swords, and have mud-fights in the rain, all while keeping an eye out for that pesky Dark Wizard who is constantly trying to sneak into the Professor’s mysterious tower.
