we can't all be heroes...
There are those moments in your life, you know, when you realize that your whole world view is a loose thread dangling from the blanket you've wrapped so tight around you. And somebody's got a hold of that one thread and is starting to pull. And most of you wants to tug back. To stay warm. To stay safe. To keep things as they were.
But then part of you wants to watch it unravel. Just to see how far it will go.
My name is Michael Marion Magdalene Morn. And this is my side of the story.
Coming Summer 2014

Click Drew to learn more about SIDEKICKED!
The battle between good and evil begins...so long as Drew doesn't fail his math test...
Andrew Bean is a sidekick. Well, sort of a sidekick. To be a sidekick you have to have someone to stand beside and...you know...kick with, but Drew's super is tucked away in a bar somewhere trying to forget his glory days. The result: Drew usually ends up being saved by someone else's hero. He knows he shouldn't complain. Not everybody is blessed with super powers (though admittedly his are pretty lame) or gets to be part of a super secret organization of crime fighters (though H.E.R.O. has too many rules) or gets to be best friends with a girl who can bench press a bulldozer (though lately she's been acting strange). It's just that it's hard to finish your history project when you are dangling over a vat of acid. And it's even harder when you're not sure what...or whom...to believe in.
Available at Kids Ink, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and (hopefully) your local bookstore

Do you have what it takes to be a hero?
Do you dream of fighting dragons? Have you ever wanted to rescue a damsel or its equally-distressed male equivalent? Are you chivalrous, valiant, honest, stalwart, nimble, stealthy, deadly, agile, and at least moderately physically attractive? Are you willing to suck man-eating spider venom out of your own butt or the butts of others? These are just some of the questions facing Mason and Cowel as they embark on an adventure to save their town. Along the way they will battle cross-dressing bullies, militant pixies, and a nasty werewolf hitman who keeps the moon in his pocket...all with the hopes of finding a few good heroes willing to help save their town.
