It has been a roller coaster of a summer! I finished Fourth Dimensional, the final book in the Earth Bound series, (for now) I finished the first book in the Time Pirates series, attended two conferences on math/science, one in Arizona and the other in New Jersey, went to Lagoon, (local amusement park) on a season pass several times, spent a week in California on the beach and at Sea World, went camping, and somehow found time to do two farmer's markets selling books and other wares. I met a lot of great people this summer, many who returned to the markets to buy books 2, 3, or 4 because they liked the first one so much. I am so grateful for loyal fans who give me such encouragement! It has been busy around the Lott family this year, but as I always say, better busy than bored. I like how things are progressing with my next project. I am attempting to tackle both, a new teen adventure, and a new Time Pirates adventure at the same time. If I survive, I'll let you know how it goes!

It looks like a charter school in Syracuse, Utah will be having me attend their Literacy Night next month. I'll be selling copies of my books, and talking with the kids about reading and writing stories of their own. In the mean time, I'm teaching math and science to my fourth grade students and trying my best to be a good dad, and husband. Don't forget to like and share the Facebook page for The Quickstep Universe, and give me a review on my books on Good Reads or Amazon.
