Batman’s famous for many things, but not necessarily his parenting skills. Should DC Comics spend more time addressing how Dick Grayson and his brothers survived a father who weaponized them? https://tinyurl.com/m3c5fhj

“CUSTOMER: Which was the first Harry Potter book?
BOOKSELLER: The Philosopher’s Stone.
CUSTOMER: And the second?
BOOKSELLER: The Chamber of Secrets.
CUSTOMER: I’l take The Chamber of Secrets. I don’t want The Philosopher’s Stone.
BOOKSELLER: Have you already read that one?
CUSTOMER: No, but with series of books I always find they take a while to really get going. I don’t want to waste my time with the useless introductory stuff at the beginning.
BOOKSELLER: The story in Harry Potter actually starts right away. Personally, I do recommend that you start with the first book – and it’s very good.
CUSTOMER: Are you working on commission?
BOOKSELLER: No.
CUSTOMER: Right. How many books are there in total?
BOOKSELLER: Seven.
CUSTOMER: Exactly. I’m not going to waste my money on the first book when there are so many others to buy. I’l take the second one.
BOOKSELLER: . . . If you’re sure.
(One week later, the customer returns)
BOOKSELLER: Hi, did you want to buy a copy of The Prisoner of Azkaban?
CUSTOMER: What’s that?
BOOKSELLER: It’s the book after The Chamber of Secrets.
CUSTOMER: Oh, no, definitely not. I found that book far too confusing. I ask you, how on earth are children supposed to understand it if I can’t? I mean, who the heck is that Voldemort guy anyway? No. I’m not going to bother with the rest.
BOOKSELLER: . . .”

Hi Marsh!! Thank you for sending a friend request~! Happy reading ;)
Remember this one? It was (probably still is) a reading list favorite for 11th graders. But how does A Separate Peace by John Knowles hold up when you read it 30 years later? http://bit.ly/1JpCLrH
For those of you who entered by recent "Name Your Title" epub giveaway, winners have been announced! See my blog for details: https://www.goodreads.com/author_blog...
It's official... The Men in the Trees will be available for sale as of October 29 on Amazon and the other usual online vendors. You can also check my website for a complete list of buying options (as they are added), reviews and more.http://www.marshmyers.com/TMITT-discu...
Hey, all... I have just added The Men in the Trees to the Goodreads database. The novel will be available in late October.
How many #bannedbooks have you read? Count them up and leave your total on my author's Facebook page. Winner gets bragging rights (and good karma)! https://www.facebook.com/MarshMyersAu...
On the Laughing Boy Blog: In Part 2 of Wandering Through Idaho, I continue to look at the iconic film locations from #MyOwnPrivateIdaho by visiting the rural Oregon highway where the opening and closing scenes were filmed. Read the complete blog here: http://www.marshmyers.com/20140908-Wa...
Chapter one of The Men in the Trees is now available for download as a PDF from my website. The novel will be available in late October and looks like it will retail for $12.99 paperback and $2.99 epub/MOBI.Additional details will be posted on the Discussion Page as they become available! Cheers!

Few teenagers have as many burdens as Meryl Panagos. Barely out of high school, she’s living on her own and struggling to raise a young son in a small Oregon town. Although she has a good job at a friend’s come book store, it’s still difficult to make ends meet or even find time to talk to the handsome university student who keeps hanging around. Then Rose Washington answers her ad for a roommate and it’s like a wish come true. A retired school teacher, Rose is happy to help cook, clean and even babysit when needed. But appearances can be deceiving and some people carry mysteries better left unsolved.
Be careful what you wish for.
The Men in the Trees arrives October – just in time for Halloween!

My new blog, Curves in the Road: Lessons Learned From Book 1 to Book 2, addresses the five biggest things publishing a book taught be about writing and young adult literature.http://www.marshmyers.com/20140706-Le...
Which young adult novel about surviving the wilderness still captures your imagination? Add your votes to this Listopia feature, Best Teen Novels on Wilderness and Ocean Survival. https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/7...
When you think about a professional novelist, how do you imagine his or her work space? Is it some dimly-lit study with cluttered bookshelves running from floor to ceiling? Is there a large mahogany desk with a dust-covered computer you can barely see behind all the piles of notes, missives and miscellany? That's the stereotype, but work space arrangement is very individualized. Read all about it on my new entry to the Laughing Boy Blog.http://www.marshmyers.com/20140522-Wr...
My new Laughing Boy blog talks about how the simple act of walking can stimulate creativity.http://www.marshmyers.com/20140502-Wa...
Anytime idiot(s) try to ban a book in a democracy you should feel morally compelled to buy it, read it and share it.http://www.dailydot.com/geek/teen-pol...
Love reading (or writing) fiction but don't have much spare time to enjoy it? How about fiction in 140 characters or less? It's the last day of the Twitter Fiction Festival. Check out their website or your Twitter feed #twitterfiction for some great pieces of mini-fiction, contests and more. http://twitterfictionfestival.com/
I'm happy to announce that my new website is now online with an updated look and features. Check it out at http://www.marshmyers.com
With my second novel due to be out later this year, I guess it's time to get a Facebook author's page. I hope you'll show it some love here: https://www.facebook.com/MarshMyersAu.... Please and thank you!

Delighted to report that the Author's Database just listed me as a Top 100 Author. In late December, I was also honored when the cover art for my first novel, His Life Abiding, became a semi-finalist in their cover art contest. You can see my Author's Database profile at http://authorsdb.com/authors-director....
A reader of His Life Abiding recently left a nice comment in response to a blog on the Huffington Post Books website. The blog was by Lisa Parkin and entitled "Why We'd Be Screwed If Young Adult Books Were Real." It's an interesting read and I think Ms. Parkin has some valid points. So, I've opened it up for discussion on my website. - See more at: http://www.marshmyers.com/blog.htm#YA...

My full review of Moon Over Manifest by Clare Vanderpool is now online at http://www.marshmyers.com/bookshelf-m...
I've entered His Life Abiding into a book cover contest on the Authors Database website. If you're so inclined, stop by and vote. It only takes a second and you don't have to create an account or anything. Thanks!http://authorsdb.com/book-cover-award...
