Snowy Trip To Indy

Hey all,

Well, my trip to Indiana is over and what a trip it was! I got to take my twin boys to the Indianapolis Children’s Museum to see dinosaurs, trains, and fish and to play in the water and the sand. It is an amazing place for kids. At one point, Connor (20 months old) planted his feet, looked to the left and then the right, and you could see in his mind that he was overwhelmed and didn’t know which way to go because of all the things to do around him. He and his twin brother Landon, also saw snow for the first time. They even enjoyed throwing snowballs at Daddy! They also learned to say, “Cold” very well.

I also had people traveling from over 30 miles to attend my book signing, at one point selling five copies to one person (a record for a signing). But I think the highlight of the trip was in visiting my nephew’s 6th grade Social Studies class. Creekside Middle School in Carmel opened their doors and hearts to me as an invited speaker. The class is creating their own book so it was great for them to have a published author speaking to them, but not as great as it was for me. They are a sharp group of kids. And a special thanks to Deseree Becker, Tyler’s teacher, who was gracious enough to invite me into her class- and brave enough to ask me to stay for the next class. I hope she keeps me up to speed with the student’s stories. Maybe I can even talk her into letting me post them on my website and blog to share with you…

And I want to remind you to keep your eyes opened during the 1st and 2nd week in January. Sometime in that time frame, you will see some national news coming out about The Samson Effect. In fact, keep checking SamsonEffect.com for the latest news about the book. And if you haven’t bought that perfect gift for your family member, coworker or client, might I suggest the book that New York Best Selling author Clive Cussler calls a “first class thriller brimming with intrigue and adventure.” Thanks to all the supporters I’ve had already, I am just 6 books away from earning my publishers “Reader’s Choice” designation. I’d appreciate any help you can give in helping me achieve that goal this month.

Well, that’s it for now. You can keep up with all the news, contests and reviews on my website, SamsonEffect.com

Have a wonderful week!

Tony
