Wacky Kid’s Seminar goin’ off Monday at OLM… #malibu @malibupatch
Monday begins a week long Seminar series at Our Lady of Malibu Elementary School. Principal Mike Smith is having Fireball and The Bride come in to help inspire kids to create cool careers through doing what they love the most. Playing. And since OLM is well versed in the balance of a great education mixed with fun activities and events, it’s easy to see that a Wacky Creativity Seminar would be a blast. They have tons of great events coming next month, so this kicks off a Holiday Season of Coolness. Webster is comning next, but if you want s to come visit your school, then email me and WE’LL DO THIS THANG!
If your child attends OLM, be sure to get them ready ’cause we’ll need their creative juices a flowin’ to draw a Wacky Ride together. And yes, I will have toys and candy as usual. Dooooosh…
Monday… 3rd & 4th graders… 10:30am-11:30am
Wednesday… 5th & 6th graders… 9-10am
Friday… 7th & 8th graders… 9-10am

Final Sketch complete for the BIG BOOK of Wacky States!
Today is a landmark day. This morning, I completed the 50th sketch for my next book, “Fireball Tim’s BIG BOOK of Wacky States.” And that state was Wyoming. You know… where Devil’s Tower is from “Close Encounters?”
This is truly exciting because it’s taken about a year to do all 50 as they are head an shoulders in complexity above Book 1. So what’s next?
They’ll get scanned, adding some photoshop adjustments and then assembled into a prototype like the first book. It’s an awesome Visual Textbook for kids, teaching them something cool about every state and again, pushing their creativity. The publisher for book 1 has decided not to do this one, so I’ll be in search of a really solid new publisher with a grand scope and vision.
Time to get crackin.’
