An apology
The blog’s been a little dry lately. Sure, I try to put up what I hope are interesting odd things like the piece on the person who provided Lucy’s drawing for Snoopy and “It Was a Dark and Stormy Night”, or yukking it up a bit about the plethora of the …
Snoopy Amigurumi Pattern
Just up for you Kindle users is a Snoopy Amigurumi Pattern, For those unfamiliar with “amigurumi,” its the art of crocheting critters. This is four bucks for one pattern… but if this stuff interests you, remember the Peanuts Crochet Kit, which has a bunch of patterns plus some supplies.
I already used the good humorous title for this one
The short parody mashup story Snoopy is a Time Lord by William Hrdina, which I’ve previously noted you can download as a free PDF from the author’s website and could purchase as an ebook for the Nook, is now available for the Kindle, if you want to pay 99 cents for it.
Peanuts books have been arriving
I’ve been trying to keep the blog down to one post per day, but there’s been a lot of little things going on (I’ve got new blog posts queued up for the next few days already – covers, new book announcements, things of that sort), so I figured I’d better …
Let’s Dance, Snoopy now shipping
The strip collection Let’s Dance, Snoopy is now shipping. I should have my copy in my hands within a couple days, and then I’ll be able to tell whether it is still promoted as a 65th Anniversary book or not (the early title listings said so, but the samples currently showing …

I admit, I was fretting about it. It was once again looking like it would be a year without a new book edition of A Charlie Brown Christmas. There were none coming through the regular book channels. We have avoided this disaster narrowly at times, with a Hallmark-only book, or something …
What I got on Friday
After three straight days of receiving packages of Peanuts books, Thursday was a downer… but Friday perked me back up with a nice big case. This turned out to be my comp copies of Classic Peanuts Paint-By-Number Kit, which includes my short book Classic Peanuts: Great Moments. Now, while receiving this makes …
Fewer and fewer
After getting 5 packages with Peanuts books in them yesterday, I only received two today. And tomorrow, I’m only expecting one… but that one will have three books in it, so I guess that’s okay. If it keeps up at this rate, I will be dead by this time next …
Paint-by-Number Kit now shipping
That Barnes&Noble-exclusive Classic Peanuts Paint-by-Number Kit including the Classic Peanuts: Great Moments book that I wrote is now shipping. I haven’t gotten my comp copies yet, so I can’t review it, but we can simply assume that it’s brilliant, moving, and a sure candidate for all the major book awards this year, right? Right?? …
