about this author
My storytelling career started at a young age on the east coast. After college I, much like the gold prospectors of 1849, packed up all my belongings and drove across country in search of riches. What I discovered were a wealth of stories. When I'm not working on the next adventure in the Edgar Font series my wife and I spend our time exploring ancient sites, traveling to places with names we can’t pronounce, and meeting interesting people with great tales to tell.
I am also the host of a show entitled HAUNTED HOAX. Episodes can be seen at www.hauntedhoax.NET. At least once a month I'm a guest on radio programs discussing the story of Edgar Font and my true life ghost stories (insert spooky laugh here).
I'll let you know when I ca...more

I have a 9-yr old that loves to read. I am struggling though for books that are not too young (Secrets of Droon) or too old (Lightning Thief). Most that I am coming across are just a year beyond his range...what age is your series best for?
Hello from Italy!
Congatulations on the Edgar Font's website: it's FANTASTIC!!!
I'll soon begin reading Edgar's adventures.
Have a nice Sunday.

Hi Patrick,
Thanks for invite me as your friend in goodreads.
It's nice to know you. Have a nice reading and writing!
Cheers,
Roos
Thanks for inviting me, Patrick! And congrats on all your work! Your website is fantastic... very nicely done!
I want to apologize for the all the recommendations from me yesterday. I wanted to share the Stoker Award news, and I only pressed the send button once--I'm not sure what happened to create so many messages. Some weird glitch.Argh...this is terrible...
Again, I'm very sorry.

Here’s wishing you a nifty New Year filled with noiseless noses, neato nicknames, noble Nebraskans, gnarly narcoleptic nebulas, and novel novels about nut-eating narwhals and novercaphobic gnats. -Jeremy :)
P.S.—I’m currently offering autographed/personally-inscribed copies of my novel, Vacation, with free shipping for those in the US. If there’s anything you could do to help me spread the word about this, I’d really appreciate it. Feel free to click here for details:

Hi Patrick!Here’s wishing you a yippee-filled Yuletime overflowing with yard-long yams, yapping yoyo-yanking yetis, yak-milk yeast-cakes, and yellow yarn-yielding year-end yard-gnomes.

Hi Patrick!If you don't mind sharing--I was wondering, what's your favorite novel of all time? Or novels?
Here’s wishing you a fantastic day filled with fabulous friendships, fanciful festivities, and frolicking phantom footstools.

hi thanks for adding me,,, nice of you,, : ) well it seems u really have lots idea to write,,, teach me ya,, hehheh have a nice day
Hi Patrick, thanks for the comment, and thanks for adding me. Been reading your profile, and it seems like you're a published writer! Very impressive! I dabble in creative writing as a hobby, but I don't think I could attempt a solid plotline for the life of me! ^_^
Hi Patrick.... i will definitely take a look at your site. I did already for a while and it's really interesting. Will spend more time there.....
I see, with those books, that you have kissed the Blarney Stone, Patrick, m'boy.
May the luck of the Irish always be with you Patrick!
I love this site too - but, don't you dare take too long of a break from writing.. :) I can't wait for the next adventure with Grandpa Font & your new book - with the adorable bears... Make sure you have two lables with my name on 'em..!
haha!
Smiles,
-RJ xx
Your books look really interesting! Definitely something I would have picked up when I was younger! :) Good luck with the rest of the series!Sera
