“Around Town” / “Under Construction” 👷💪

Thank you! 🙏🙌

The “Visual Catalog” in the first half of the book is completely laid out (~65-70 pages) with Chapter 1 nearing completion (there are only 3 chapters, then instructions, so technically 1/3 done?!).  I’m currently constructing …construction stuff! 🚛💨  This was a gap that needed to be filled, much like many a pothole around your town, so the progress is slow.  But once the content is shored up, then it should be smooth cruising through Chapter 2. On a personal note, I was recently laid off in March.  So, this could go either way for you!  Either I have a lot more free time to finish the next book, or I’m busy job hunting, and the book might be delayed…  Since this is my only income now, I am trying to balance both.  Word of mouth and reviews wouldn’t hurt!  Thank you again for sticking around.  Amazon – leave a review Our Website – leave a review­

If you follow Bricksie, you may have seen this mention on a recent YT video of his.  I reached out to Jordan and asked to include a few of his City designs in the next book, Around Town.  He agreed!

In Richmond, KY, this past April, I was honored to be invited as a special guest for a Bricks & Minifigs’ Grand Opening.  The owners are great people!  I signed books and ran workshops all day, building little LEGO furniture featured in Room By Room. 🔧🔨

That next weekend, at the end of April, I was at Bricks & Minifigs in Fort Wayne, Indiana, for another day full of activities!  Again, the owner was a super nice individual, and I got to meet a lot of cool people – kids, staff, and fellow LEGO AFOLS. 😎

I envision waiting for Around Town to come out must be like waiting for a bus.  You never really know when it’ll show up!  So, I made a little graphic to at least guide us on the route it’ll take.  I hope you enjoy watching its progress as much as I do.  And in case you’re wondering, I’m measuring the back of the bus crossing the “STOP” line as making it to “Publish St.”! 😅
