Phew… Time to take a breath and check-in. First, the good news: Amazon has it in stock and ready to ship. Next: Whoo-ee, I’ve been busy. Mostly non-Mousejunkies stuff. Day-gig stuff. Writing travel and TV pieces for the Boston Herald. I usually link to them on Facebook, so if we’re not friends, request it! I’ve [...]
My second book about Walt Disney World, officially titled “Mousejunkies: MORE Tips, Tales and Tricks for a Disney World Fix” (but informally called “Mousejunkies 2″) arrived on my doorstep today! It’s a continuation of my lifelong dream of writing books about something I love and am passionate about. For everyone who bought the first book [...]
I just had an email exchange with someone from my publisher’s office and it’s causing me to begin hyperventilating. It went a little something like this: (Actually, it went exactly like this:) Hi Bill, The books are ready at the printer. I’m actually coordinating the shipping this very minute. 2 cases are coming directly to [...]
Amazon.com sent out an email blast today featuring “Mousejunkies 2.” This is very exciting, because it means the next book is just about here, and whenever Amazon sends those emails out it tends to attract a lot of attention. And they’re offering it cheaper than I can get it! It’s a good savings. Plus, a [...]
Can you tell I got a new iMac? The thing about the iMac is that it comes with all these awesome toys. I let’s you make really slick looking videos. Am I a filmmaker on par with Otto von Bonn Bahn? Eh… No. Like I said, the Mac came with some really awesome toys.
We’re in the home stretch. My next book, which we’ll refer to as “Mousejunkies 2” because it’s a much shorter title, is being passed back to me after edits from my publisher. I’ve got additions to write, since Disney has been on an insane expansion/construction/change/announcement pace since I submitted it to the publisher several months [...]
Hey everyone – I’ll be one of the guest authors tonight at Zorvino Vineyards’ “A Literary Evening: Authors’ Night at Zorvino Vineyards.” It’s from 6-9 p.m. at Zorvino Vineyards (directions.) There will be all kinds of authors, wine tasting, a cash bar, and plenty of Disney talk over at my table. I’m really looking forward [...]
On a trip to Walt Disney World with Mousejunkie Walt this past year, we thought it might be funny to take a copy of “Mousejunkies” along on certain attractions. Our first attempt was Splash Mountain. We had front-row seats and as our log climbed to the top of Chickapin Hill, we steeled ourselves to focus [...]
My first “Ask the Mousejunkies” column begins appearing in the Englewood (Florida) Edge paper today. It grew out of questions that I get asked through this site, and my own admitted ongoing obsession with Walt Disney World. (Still a junkie. I don’t see it changing anytime soon.) The guys over at the Englewood Edge are [...]
I’ve spoken with my publisher, Travelers’ Tales, and a few details are being added to the cover of the second book. Here’s the short version: The cover image is the same, but you’ll notice a different color font in the title, a few description differences in the subtitle, and there will be a review blurb [...]
