This is just a quick “Thank You” to all of the AAUGH Blog readers who stopped by my booth at the Festival of Books this weekend – both the existing (hi, Jim!) and the ones who grabbed up the blog’s address card and are checking it out for the first …

If you’re in the Los Angeles area, you should go to the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books this weekend! Why? Because books! Lots of publishers, self-publishers, and vendors there to sell you books! Authors there to talk about their books! To sign their books! Most of all, books! (And even …

Here is the cover for the upcoming Peanuts Cross-Stitch book, slated to ship in August. The book description says that it has “more than 15 stitchable designs”; the cover tells you that the number is 16, which is indeed more than 15. So if you want to make Peanuts characters in …

Coming in October is either The Peanuts Munch Time Cook Book (if you believe the cover image) or The Peanuts Munchtime Cookbook (if you believe the Amazon text.) Spacing matters, folks!
