11-11-11 is World Hoop Day

Every year hoopers celebrate world hoop day by going out to spread the joy of hoop dance to others. While I plan to attend local outreach events in my community, I decided that this year I'd also attempt to reach all of you out in cyber land. So I recorded a  quick video about WHD, why I love hoop dance, and some very basic starting steps for those interested in picking up the best dance partner you'll ever have--a hoop! And, of course, I jam out a little at the end.

I hope you enjoy:




Happy World Hoop Day everyone!

Awesome video. I use to hoop as a kid, but hadn't thought of taking it up again until I watched this video. Now I want to give it a try again. Looks like a lot of fun. Thanks. P.S. Your dog in the beginning of the video almost stole the show. He/she had me laughing.

LOL. Yeah, she couldn't figure out why I was talking at a camera and was trying to tempt me to go talk to her instead. She's a nut. ^_^

I know you posted this a while ago, but I figured I'd let you know I appreciated it. As a few have said before me, it makes me wanna start hoop dancing too :p. I just started on blogger, and happened to come across your name, which got me curious; considering I've read one of your books before. It's always cool to see authors for who they are in the real world too. Thanks for the vid.

Thanks everyone. I'm glad the video was well received and got some of you interested in hooping. If there is interest, maybe I'll make a couple more on simple tricks.

What's Next?

A lot of people are writing to ask if Grave Destiny is the final book in the series. I'm very happy to report that no, this is not the end! Ace has contracted one final Alex Craft novel so that I can finish up the story. I'm currently writing the first draft, and while it has a tentative title, I'm not free to share it quite yet. I'll be turning in the 7th Alex Craft novel this September, so I anticipate it will be released late 2020 or early 2021 but will update you when I have more information. So, for those of you worried that this might be the end, worry not. There is more. I hope you are enjoying Grave Destiny!
