And now, one week to DUNGEON CRAWL AT THE HAUNTED MALL, my @chooseadventure.bsky.social book out April 21!

I am reading R.A. Montgomery's The Abominable Snowman (a @chooseadventure.bsky.social book). A group of yetis just shot me in the face with a golden cannon. But I will not be dissuaded from my quest. I will almost certainly die again. And again. And again.

We are 6 days away from my actual @chooseadventure.bsky.social book being out in the world! DUNGEON CRAWL AT THE HAUNTED MALL, a brand new Choose Your Own Adventure brand book, is almost here, and will be pretty much everywhere. www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/804064... #books #comingsoon

I'm excited to visit @northshirebooks.bsky.social .bsky.social in Saratoga Springs today at 1 p.m. with Kaiju Gaga and my kids for a @chooseadventure.bsky.social party! Please come by for an interactive story, a signed book, and the chance to make your own kaiju.

It’s #unboxing day for DUNGEON CRAWL AT THE HAUNTED MALL! Out April 21 via @chooseadventure.bsky.social and @penguinrandomhouse.bsky.social Can’t wait for everybody to read this wild, wacky, adventure, if you dare! This is my middle grade debut also. #books #kidsbooks #middlegrade #fantasy

Hey Ryan Gosling! Heard you love these books, and I literally have a brand new Choose Your Own Adventure coming out this April: DUNGEON CRAWL AT THE HAUNTED MALL!

I've got 4 @barnesandnoble.com book tour events confirmed for Spring. Trying to get indie bookstore events as well. I'll stop at indie shops up and down the West Coast as I travel, signing DUNGEON CRAWL AT THE HAUNTED MALL if it's in stock. More about my @chooseadventure.bsky.social book:

Omg!! My upcoming @chooseadventure.bsky.social book is in the top ten for Witches & Wizards in Children’s Fantasy Fiction! As in the general ranking, not even in upcoming or new releases! Dungeon Crawl at the Haunted Mall comes out in April. www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/804064... 

Supremely giddy over my @chooseadventure.bsky.social book description. The most DEMENTED thing I’ve ever written. It’s out April 2026, and you can preorder it now! www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/804064...

COMING SOON: Dungeon Crawl at the Haunted Mall by @jendiagammon.bsky.social. In the late 80s, a toxic spill rendered your local mall hazardous— at least, that’s what your parents told you. Now, your friend is trapped inside. Can you make it out alive? Available 4/21/26 wherever books are sold.

Though this is a old post, we can celebrate that Edward Packard will be represented in the modern revival of #ChooseYourOwnAdventure with 6 of his books returning to print, starting with "The Cave of Time" in August: www.cyoa.com/blogs/press/... #CYOA @chooseadventure.bsky.social

Looks like I can show off my new @chooseadventure.bsky.social book cover because it is out in the wild. Coming in February. Written by @ecmyers.com

Wanna see something ~amazing~?! This is the cover of KAIJU GAGA, beautifully illustrated by @normgrock.bsky.social! 🤩 I grew up reading @chooseadventure.bsky.social, so it's thrilling to see my name on a book with that iconic red logo. I loved writing it and I hope kids (and you!) love reading it.

Thank you @publisherswkly.bsky.social for the mention of my @chooseadventure.bsky.social book out April 2026, Dungeon Crawl at the Haunted Mall! #childrensbooks #middlegradebooks #books www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/...

I missed the announcement in Publishers Lunch, but FYI: I wrote a Choose Your Own Adventure! It's called KAIJU GAGA, edited by @benwilgus.bsky.social, illustrated by @normgrock.bsky.social—and it's monstrous fun for kids and kaiju enthusiasts. Out early next year from @chooseadventure.bsky.social! 🦖

I’ll always love the classic #CYOA approach: why say "You die" in one sentence when you can stretch the existential dread across multiple paragraphs? Much more kid-friendly! 💀🌵 #ChooseYourOwnAdventure #Gamebooks @chooseadventure.bsky.social

Just got edits back for Dungeon Crawl at the Haunted Mall, my @chooseadventure.bsky.social book out April 2026! I’m excited to dig in and make this book perfect. You won't believe the diabolical things in store for these kids. Warlocks & poltergeists don’t mess around! 80s vibes, but make it chaos!

Translated, old-school #ChooseYourOwnAdventure! ‘Escape,' originally #CYOA #20 by co-creator R.A. Montgomery, became #13 in Spain. Original series spanned 185 books; this translated set ~50%, totaling 90 #gamebooks. Book & sequel returned when @chooseadventure.bsky.social revived series in 2005.

I can’t remember the last time I did one of these probably when I was a child. How about you? #paxeast

Ladies and gentlemen, my newest book! www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/787094... #BookSky

Superman actor, David Corenswet's Grandpa is the inventor of the CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE series of books and authored over fifty of them. Perhaps the biggest reason I became a reader as a young man... between those books and comics.

Hey, #Bluesky. Did you know that Choose Your Own Adventure books fit inside stockings? #Christmas

The Stranger Things/Choose Your Own Adventure book was the perfect use of the both brands. Not only do they both tap into 80s nostalgia, but they even use the same font! #crossover #cyoa

Out today, Fairy House Disaster! My 4th @chooseadventure.bsky.social. Written by @tinaconnolly.bsky.social. Bert the Below Average Fairy returns in this follow-up to the best-seller Fairy House. Will he help Daisy clean up her mess or create more holiday shenanigans? #kidslit #illustration

One of my favorite acquisitions from PAXU this year was the Choose Your Own Adventures 1-12! The scent of nostalgia is strong. These started my love of books and reading.

Are you a #funcle? I bet you are! So, naturally, you'll need this @huffpost.com Holiday Gift Guide featuring the CYOA Magick Box: www.huffpost.com/entry/best-h...

Were you at Pax Unplugged in Philly this weekend? Did you see #ChooseYourOwnAdventure books? Did you meet our incredible Creative Director? If the answer is no to all, give this video a watch 🙃 youtu.be/II2izQsBiLI?...

I'm absolutely in love with the @chooseadventure.bsky.social cover re designs. I bought a pile of them to read with the kiddo!

I ordered this used because it was probably the first chapter book I ever read and I cannot describe the experience of rereading it. Recovering 40 year old memories. Recalling my childhood in a depth and richness not possible in any other way. Almost spiritual @chooseadventure.bsky.social

My 4th @chooseadventure.bsky.social book Fairy House Disaster release is on Dec. 10th. It's a follow-up to Fairy House, a best-seller for CYOA. Bert the Below Average Fairy is back! Will he help Daisy the Disaster Fairy clean up her mess or create more holiday shenanigans? #kidslit
