Hello. My name is Ryan, and I cry when people get the Golden Buzzer on America’s Got Talent. It all started when they put the Golden Buzzer on America’s Got Talent. I really can’t explain it other than to say Jason Raff and Simon Cowell are geniuses. I am no Simon fan either. He …
I want to talk about one of my characters today. I feel very close to Skeeter. She is a cool kid. Skeeter is one of Xander’s long time best pals. She is a tall redhead with a big crush on her best pal Xander. She’s also super smart. She is the constant …
I remember loving Saturday morning cartoons. I had my favorites that I watched every week like Smurfs, Snorks, MASK, Superfriends, Dungeons and Dragons, Godzilla and Godzookie, and a ton more that I remember bits and piece of, but can’t remember the names. I’ve always liked cartoon. I was an early adopter of The Simpsons, its …
This is my favorite movie/book. I have some movies I like a little more, and some books I like at least as much, but as a combo, this is it. When I set out to write Sugarbeet Falls Volume 2 – The Duel, I wanted to find a way to keep people turning the …
Are Facebook Follow Reviews a thing? I don’t think I’ve seen one, but I need to recommend one, so I’m using the term. Of course, its more a recommendation than a review, but I like the Facebook Follow Review idea. So anyway…I stumbled upon the Life of Dad Facebook page a few months …
Last night, my daughter Lakey and I walked to a neighborhood park. You may think it was because I’m a great dad who loves taking my kids to the park on hot summer evenings. That’s not really true however as I needed to get my Fitbit steps up and Lakey was so tired that if …
Maybe its because my kids are getting bigger. Maybe its because of the POTUS visit to Great Falls last week. Or maybe its because I am big huge bleeding heart snowflake pain-in-the-butt. I don’t exactly know the catalyst, but I have found I have become downright passionate about the problem we have facing acceptance and …
As I re-read Sugarbeet Falls Volume 1 last week, a new favorite character jumped out at me. I am totally digging Aaron Bird Feather. Aaron is hilarious. He is super confident, definitely tiptoeing on the edge of cockiness, but he’s still sweet and loyal. I love the way Pops loves to make a …
Happy Fourth of July! Happy Independence Day! If you check the post date, you’ll see I’m writing this on the Fifth of July! Clearly the current date renders this post somewhat worthless. If you did get a chance to grab a free copy of the Kindle version of Sugarbeet Falls, I hope you enjoy it …
There is a minor but very important character in the Sugarbeet Falls series. Xander has a basset hound named Parker. In my opinion, bassets hounds are hilarious. They’re huge, they weigh a ton, but their bellies are only a couple inches from the ground. They kind of waddle around with their ridiculous ears dragging on …
