The predator with her prey. Dog day Tuesday.

MILWAUKEE! Thanks for coming out to the Midwest Gaming Classic and picking up so many books! This was my best two-day event yet! Another great weekend of books in the books!

The calm before the storm… Midwest Gaming Classic begins today!

First Maragritas of the summer! Nothing like a nice silver tequila, a quality orange liqueur, and fresh-squeezed limes. Simple things done exceptionally well.

This weekend I'll be back in Milwaukee for the Midwest Gaming Classic at the Baird Center! April 25th and 26th. See ya there!

Thank you, Decatur, Illinois! Had a great time at the Midwest Toy and Comic Fest this past weekend. Always love meeting and interacting with new readers. See ya next time!

Last day at the @midwesttoyandcomicfest here at the Decatur Civic Center! Come on out!

Ready to rock here @midwesttoyandcomicfest this Saturday and Sunday at the Decatur Civic Center!

Sure, world-building STARTS out real fun. Draw a map. Add a bunch of interesting, mysterious locales and clues. Add some cultures, religions, traditions, governments, economic systems.... Then comes the editing phase, and it's just endlessly fact-checking yourself. #amwriting #amwritingfantasy

DOG DAY TUESDAY!!!

"A Black Heart Unbroken" is premiering in two weeks! Watch and vote for the trailer here: northstarfestival.com/trailer-cont... You can get your tickets now at northstarfestival.com/screening-pr....

Saw Project Hail Mary and it was great. Plenty of hard sci-fi stuff, but what really makes the movie is the incredible characters and the heart on display. Some pretty excellent shots too. Overall, a fantastic movie-going experience!

After only being vaguely familiar with the "I'll have what she's having scene," I FINALLY got around to watching "When Harry Met Sally." Not my genre of choice, but a fantastic, funny, wholesome movie. It's a Rob Reiner flick, so no surprise there. Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Readers love my novels! But don't take my word for it. Here's what reviewers are saying: Look What You Made Me Do - “A horror masterpiece,” and “An absolute trip down Mindf**k Lane!” Buy one (or all) of my books at www.amazon.com/stores/Joe-P...

Thank You Milwaukee Horror Con and everyone who made it out! We haven't made it out of Wisconsin yet (lousy Smarch weather) almost as if Death has us gripped in its cold icy grasp... but we had a great time meeting so many horror fans and seeing so many familiar faces. Can't wait for next time!
