Which 3 designs would you like to see me print up for the Mothman Festival (and beyond)? I am frantically getting ready for the Super Bowl of Cryptid events this Sept 19/20th and I need to know what designs resonate with my cryptid community! Please use the numbers to reference the design. I also posted these to my stories so you can see zoomed in versions. I appreciate all feedback!!!!

My official review is in from Tony Breeden for my newest book: “Mothman: An Illustrated History.” This is a ringing endorsement from a man who KNOWS his West Virginia Cryptid Lore!!! Listen to Tony and buy a book!!!

This is so awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had a huge banner made of my header image (made by Cryptid Empire). It’s for Cryptids in the Mountains!

I thought it would be really fun to have this out for people to color in! Add some color to my usually black, white, and grey header image. Sharpies will be provided, but be careful, they do smudge a little on the banner materials!

I had no way of taking a picture of the whole thing except to prop it up on my couch 😂

This is my response to Tony Breeden concerning our Cryptid Battle Royal this Sunday at WVPopCon
