Back from a relaxing vacation and some bookstore visits in Florida. Got lots of Mick Morris fans down there reading on the beach...But you know, it's always good to be home.  Gotta share one of the most exciting parts of our trip with you.  We took a ghost tour in St. Augustine, Florida, which is known as one of the most haunted cities in America.  Well sure enough, we weren't completely convinced - until late at night on the tour we captured this weird orb in a picture!  We took tons of pics before and tons after and it only showed in two, and the second photo it looks like it's floating away!  There were no bugs or other lights anywhere around! Everyone on the tour was pretty freaked out, except the tour guide.  He said every once in awhile someone on the tour will capture one on a camera!  Pretty creepy - had to be a ghost! Got us excited about wrapping up the next Ghost Board Posse book #2 Aloha Haunts! 
karenimprov: So, Happy 4th of July!  Time to celebrate!  Hope that you plan on seeing some exciting fireworks! We can't wait to see all of our friends who emailed us from up north and plan on stopping by to say hi in Traverse City next week - see you then!

Hey there Mick Morris friends and fans, even though it's not hot enough outside to believe it...summer vacation is finally here! We hope that you have some cool things planned for this summer. Whether you are going on a vacation, or just doing a staycation make sure that you get outside, have fun, and have some exciting books for scary, summer reading! Some perfect times for that are around a campfire, on a beach, or just curled up inside during a summer thunderstorm.

The Mick Morris team is heading south to check out some of the ghosts of St. Augustine, Florida, one of the most haunted cities in the United States! They are even staying in the haunted Casa Monica Hotel! Then it's onto Disney for a relaxing summer break. But, they will be back for the release their frightening new book, Mick Morris Myth Solver #5 The Abominable Snowman...A Frozen Nightmare! That'll keep you cool with chills this summer! Check back to find out where the fun release party will be this August...and keep reading!

Happy Memorial Day! Hope that you are having a good one - barbeque's, friends, family and fun. There are some great movies out too - our recommendations - Star Trek and Night at the Museum 2 - which was hilarious. And remember, to take a moment to think of all of those brave soldiers who fought for our country.

I love our Ohio neighbors (okay, okay, except for on game day)! What a fantastic time we had at the 8Th Annual Claire's Day! We visited wonderful schools with terrific kids (see the photo's page) and we met some of the nicest people, and that's including a ton of other famous and fun authors and illustrators (see www.clairesday.org ). But more importantly this was just a fantastic event, one to be remembered in honor of Claire. The amazing community of people in Toledo and the surrounding areas speak volumes for taking care of each other and being kind to one another. If you have never attended Claire's Day, make it a point to go-you won't be disappointed! A giant thanks and kudos to the Rubini family and each and every one of the Claire's Day volunteers.



5-3-09
Okay...when you go into a cool comic book store on nice Saturday afternoon in May in Ann Arbor, what is the last thing that you expect to see? If you answered the Abominable Snowman then you are right!  How wild is it that? Especially since the next Mick Morris Myth Solver book #5 Abominable Snowman...A Frozen Nightmare! is almost out!  We couldn't believe it-talk about a surprise, of course there were others that day at the Vault of Midnight too, like Stormtroopers, free comic books, ice cream. We love that place...but the Abominable is the best-except that this one is cuddly and ours is super scary! Coming soon!!!

Happy Spring! Happy Easter! Happy Passover! Hope that you've been having an awesome Spring Break! We had a great Reading Month-as many of you know (we visited 14 schools). Each and every school was fantastic. We met so many amazing students, teachers, principals and PTO people. It was a delight to hear about so many of the students aspirations-you know you can do whatever you dream of, so never, ever, ever give up.  Also, we will post the winning entry for our "I Met A Myth" writing contest soon.

This month we are really excited to be presenting for the Children's Literature Conference in Auburn Hills at Oakland Community College (and there are still a few spaces left-if you are an aspiring author or illustrator. Here is the number for more info 248-341-2000). Next month, we feel truly privileged to be a part of the wonderful Claire's Day Festival in Maumee, Ohio www.clairesday.org. This is something that can't be missed. It will be a fantastic day of Children's book authors and illustrators from throughout the Midwest (and beyond!), local Storytellers, family entertainment, book related hands-on activities and much more. So hopefully we will see you there!

Spring is in the air...and so is Reading Month! We hope that you are happily enjoying this warm spell (let's hope it stays) and finding lots of great books to read this month...doesn't matter what it is, just keep reading! We started out Reading Month visiting Romeo and Melvindale, and had a great time at both! If we aren't lucky enough to visit your school this month, there is still April and May...just tell your teacher or Media Specialist about us. Every school deserves an author or illustrator visiting their school (or both-like us) to get the whole story on reading, writing and art! So, keep reading, it will take you places you've never imagined...and Happy Reading Month!

2-15-2009
Wow...nothing like a little bit of warm weather to get us thinking Spring and Summer!  Even though Winter popped it's chilly head back up, we are busy gearing up for a fun, exciting and busy Spring!  We are now completely booked for March Reading Month, but you guys know what we always say...every month should be reading month!  So, if you want us to visit your school we have plenty of dates in April and May. Those are perfect times to gear up for Summer beach and camping reading!  Also, for those of you who have requested AR tests, we now have them (thanks to Dr. Katherine Ellis).  So, just have your teacher or Media Specialist email us at mickmorrisinfo@yahoo.com and we will happily send them to your school.  Remember too, don't let reading be a drag (just cuz of AR) make it fun, by reading what you enjoy.

A little bit chilly outside isn't it?  Not, too, cold to visit you guys! We happily started our author/illustrator in residence in Novi Middle School - and what a great time we had! Dr. Ellis' talented group of 6th graders are each writing their own book - everything from historical to sports themed.  We had a great time helping them get started, we even did some cool stuff to get the creative juices flowing - and we know it worked!  We will be back in January, and can't wait to see what they have written!

We also trudged our way out to Rochester Barnes & Noble yesterday (yes, in that blizzard!), and had a fantastic time! They were so welcoming, and helpful - which made our event a huge success.  Also, a gi-nourmous congratulations to all of the art students who received their recognition awards - we have just been meeting so many talented kids - whose hearts are in the arts...keep it going young friends!

From Mick - Hello everyone, and happy holidays! We hope that you get to enjoy the season, by giving and taking care of others.  This year we won't be travelling to film until January, and it's gonna be cold...YIKES!!! Be back soon, gotta help mom clean the house...YUK!

Hope that you had a totally fun and scary Halloween! It's hard to believe that it's over...all the ghosts are saying 'BOOHOO!' Okay, that was a totally lame joke - I know.

Here is the latest and greatest news...It's time for another WRITING CONTEST - oh yeah! This one is called "I Met a Myth!" To enter the contest, just write a short story (the length is up to you-it can be a paragraph or ten pages) about how you actually met a myth. You can add a chapter to the Mick Morris books, or you can make up your own. It can be an existing myth, or one that you make up. What we are looking for in your story is dialog, interaction, and action between you and the myth.

You can enter the contest by yourself, or your teacher can have your entire class enter. Make sure that your entry in neatly typed, or if it is hand written we need to be able to read it. Now, I know you are thinking, "Well, like what will I win?" (Insert drumroll here) You will win a visit to your classroom by Karen Bell-Brege, a set of books for you and your school library, a small surprise for every class member, your picture and entry posted on our website and a gift basket!  This is the contest of all contests! Isn't that totally cool and worth it? So have fun and write on!  Click here to find out more or print out a sheet for your teacher.

You can just feel the fright in the air as Halloween is getting closer and closer! Isn't it just totally exciting? If there is anyone out there who doesn't like Halloween, you need to write to us at mickmorrisinfo@yahoo.com and tell us why you don't. Speaking of writing, get those pencils and paper ready because we are gearing up for the next Mick Morris Myth Solver writing contest for elementary schools, and Ghost Board Posse for middle schools.  We're busy putting together a cool contest - with a really great prize.  So, check back here often, because the contest will be posted in the next few weeks!  Who doesn't love a good contest...or a good book?  Tom Hanks does!

And now here are a few words from Mick...

Yeah Halloween is coming and I can't wait; even though I am not quite sure what I am going to be. I'm still totally excited. I think that this year my costume will just be something random. It doesn't matter though, cuz the fun is all about that frightening, scary night of October 31st - WHHHOOOOO HAAAAAAA HAAAAAA!


2-21-2008
Wow, what a fun busy week!  It started with the Maltby Book Fair (a super big thanks to the promoter of the year Kathy, and to the wonderful Media Specialists!), then a talk at the Royal Oak Public Library.  If you want to support Michigan Authors and Illustrators, make sure you ask your Media Specialists to include them in your book fairs.  Also, a big thanks to everyone that joined us this weekend!  What a great time. Check out the photos section to see your pic and a special signing appearance of Mick, Nathan, and Sissy (character models Karl and Katie)! And please be sure to click on the Book Trailer logo to see the new fantastic Mick Morris Myth Solver book trailer.  Or, check out the Ghost Board Posse trailer that Mick, himself, put together!  He did the editing, animation and voice over...and here is what he has to say...

Hi everyone!  Thanks for your comments on the Ghost Board Posse trailer, and I am now happy that the Mick Morris Myth Solver book trailer is finished and ready for you to see.  For those of you who asked me questions on how I make my movies, I work in  Pinnacle Studios, Poser, and Anime Studio.  The best way to learn them is just to create your movie and then teach yourself by doing it.  The tutorials help too.  Well, now I am just goofing around on Spore, got some homework too -YUK!

Last night I had the awesome opportunity to be a part of a fantastic panel that the esteemed writer Cindy LaFerle put together at the Royal Oak Public Library. For anyone interested in writing - these are can't miss sessions, in fact I have one there next Wednesday, September 17Th at 7:00pm. I'll be speaking about the Mick Morris Myth Solver books and the Ghost Board Posse book. Then on Thursday, September 18Th the panel will be back at 7:00pm.

And here is totally cool news...Maltby Middle School is having a book fair and asked us to be a part of it! So in this pic you can see our books on display...And if you school is having a book fair, and you ask them to have us, and they do...we'll give you a free book! So be sure to talk to your Media Specialist and have them email us!

Also, thanks so much for our friends that have been popping into our bookstores signings to see us!  A special hello to our friend pictured above from Allen Park. Check out the schedule on the front page to see where we will be!

Now from Mick:

School is cool! No kidding, I am really enjoying it this year! I'm also glad that our next myth solving mission isn't until winter. Mom and dad promised that it will be a really fun place and somewhere that I can snowboard - so I am totally excited! But the only thing that bothers me...is what kind of myth has anything to do with snow. If you know, drop me an email. Happy weekend!

8-19-2008
A great big hello to all of our friends that we saw last weekend in Ann Arbor and Novi - thanks for stopping by!  Also, this coming weekend, if you happen to be in the Allen Park area, be sure to pop into the Allen Park Barnes & Noble and say 'HI!'  Especially if you are out shopping for school clothes...Oh no I mentioned it didn't I, SCHOOL.  Can you believe it's almost here?  The good news is that we will be seeing some of you when we visit your school.  And if we don't have your school on our list, just have your teacher email us and hopefully we will be able to visit you're school as well..  And Ghost Board Posse fans...be sure to check out your pics on www.ghostboardposse.com, Mick Morris book lovers, see your pics on this site, just click on photo's from visits.
 
Hi everyone!  My friends and I have been watching the olympics and all I can say is, Go Michael Phelps!  Totally cool!  But, I really think that anyone that puts in as much practice, and hard work as these atheletes deserves a gold medal!  Well, I can't believe that school is only two weeks away and my parents won't even tell me where the next myth solver mission is!  I must do some snooping and find out!  Okay, gotta go back to school shopping now - yuk!

7-25-2008
Well we are cruising through summer a little to fast for me...but it has been great!  I hope that everyone is enjoying their summer (including Brad and Angelina - pictured), and getting lots of summer reading in too! Check both this site and www.ghostboardposse.com for all of our upcoming bookstore visits! See ya there!  Also, check the photo page on both sites for updated pictures.

Just can't wait to see some of our 'Up North' friends this coming week!  And, for those of you who didn't know that we were heading up that way, please be sure to check out all of the super locations that we'll be at on www.ghostboardposse.com.  And speaking of Ghost Board Posse, thanks to those of you who have sent in your great reviews!  Here is one of them...

"This book is an awesome thriller!  This book is full of action and grabs you! I never wanted to put it down. there was not one slow part! All action, all the time! I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys anything scary or full of fun and excitement!" --Aden Kuehnl Student Age 12

Thanks Aden!  If anyone wants to pick up your scary Ghost Board Posse #1 London Screaming!  Just head out to your local bookstore.  Also, for our Birmingham and Bloomfield friends be sure to look for the article that is coming out in the August issue of Signature Magazine!  Keep having fun in the summertime sun! And now here's Mick...

What a great summer!  Camp was about the most fun I could've ever had!  I took the Outdoor Sportsmen program and did the zipline (which was really, really high up), canoed, swam, archery, rifle practice, hiked, basketball, campfires and more! What a blast...I just love summertime, but just between you and me, I have heard rumors that the Myth Solver show is heading for a winter taping, and I'm just not ready for that...So, gotta go for now ...Keep livin' it up in the summer!



6-14-2008
Hey everybody! School's out! Isn't that fantastic? Lot's of our friends have written to us asking us why we don't update our blog more often...well I promise you we will. Just had some major surgery and took awhile to get back in action - but doing great now (for those of you who didn't know I injured my hip doing comedy while impersonating James Brown and doing the splits!).

Okay, the latest news...and this is big - 'Ghost Board Posse #1 London Screaming'  has been released and is now available at your bookstore! Remember when we saw you, we said that it is for readers 10 plus (unless you get your parents permission) because it is SCARY!!! In fact when I was home alone writing it, if I heard a noise in the house, I would jump!  So, be sure to check it out... here is the website www.ghostboardposse.com.

We just got this from our friend, Justin!  It was great running into you Justin and glad to hear that you like Champ!

Here's the latest from Mick...

I am so glad that it's summer vacation! I can hardly believe that it's here!  The break started out great by having my buddy Jake for the weekend! And then next week I go to camp - talk about fun.  I would love to hear what you are doing for your summer break!

Okay, about 'Ghost Board Posse #1 London Screaming.'  I read it and it is SCARY! I'm not kidding - it's not like any kids books.  I had to put it down at night cuz I got freaked out.  The characters and skateboarding tricks in it are totally cool.  You gotta check it out.  Have a great summer!

5-20-2008
Okay, who's fired up to see Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull this week?  We are big time.  In fact, we're looking forward to seeing Karen Allen return as Marion Ravenwood in the movie.  Here are a couple of pictures from 2006 where Darrin had the opportunity to interview her for WDFN.  She was very very nice and we're totally glad she's back playing, not only Indy's girlfriend...but  Shia Labeouf's mom!  We can't wait!  She also signed a Marion Ravenwood Disney Park exclusive action figure for us.  Too cool.



4-30-2008
Hi friends...and by the way thanks for the super nice emails and drawings (check out the new ones on Your Sketches). Now I have to say that I don't like ending our school visits - but I sure love the fact that summer is coming! What better time than summer to grab a Mick Morris Myth Solver book to read around a spooky campfire or on a rainy summer night...Mick Morris books are even great for reading on the beach!   I know I am getting my scary reading material together for summer reading - so check back often and I will let you in on what I'm reading...here's a few words from Mick...

Hi! The countdown for the end of the school year has started and we are at 32 days of actual school left!  Will I miss school you ask? Only my friends...plus you guys know how I am into robotics and movie making and stuff like that so I am going to a super cool summer camp this year for video game creation.  Yep and I can't wait!  Write back and let me know what kind of exciting summer camp you are going to. TTYL!

A big shout out to Doherty and Lone Pine Elementary Schools...it was so great to meet everyone!  Check out some of the photo's on the 'Photo's From Visits page!' Also, be sure to join us this Saturday at the brand new big Ann Arbor Borders Bookstore!  We'll be there at noon. It is one of the coolest stores.  We also can't wait to show you Mick's latest surprise for you...we should have it here sometime this coming weekend...Speaking of, here he is...


Hi everybody!  I can't believe that it's Tuesday already...because I have a huge report due.  I am almost done, but I REALLY want to head outside cuz it's sooo nice out!  Anyway hope you are all doing great and I'm surprised that this is the last quarter of school...but you aren't going to believe what happened on our last myth solving mission.  Yikes, it was a close one, and the stories that my parents have...all I can say is that if you thought that the Abominable Snowman was fake...you will think again!



4-6-2008
Yeah!  Spring is finally here...well for those of us in Michigan anyway (some of you have been lucky enough to have warm weather already). As you know, we've been super busy visiting so many of our great friends at schools, libraries and bookstores this past winter.  And we want to thank you for all of your cool emails - especially Pat Pullis' group of aspiring writers and artists in Warren!  We just happily posted all of the totally cool stories and artwork right here on the website just click here, or visit the link on the "your sketches" page.  It's a new page called " writings."  I just love it when I get to see true creativity!  I have to tell you too, that last night Mr. Brege and I were watching the coolest story about Champ on the Discover Channel...so if you think it's a myth - you just have to see these stories!  Enjoy the great weather!  Here are a few words from Mick...   


Hi everybody!  Just got home a little while ago, I got to spend the night at my friend Joey's.  We had a blast!  Watched scary movies, played video games and basketball - just fun! Got tons of homework to do tonight though.  I really think that homework should be illegal on weekends.  So, I've been saving my money to buy some totally cool software and I will be making some new animated short films...just as soon as I learn everything that the program can do - it's awesome though. Oh and I was lucky enough over the break to get to see my best friend Nathan, and my stinky cousin Sissy- check them out in the photo here. Oh yeah, just in case you wonder what happened to Nathan's black hair, he got a bit part in one of his dads films and had to dye it.  When he gets back to LA, they are going to dye it back for him.  Have a great week!  TTYL



3-12-2008
What a wonderful time we had at the Fox Theater in downtown Detroit last Saturday night. We went to see comedian and impressionist Frank Caliendo. You may know him from his Dish Network commercials, Mad TV, or the NFL on Fox. He's best know for impersonating George Bush and John Madden. Darrin got to chat with Frank briefly while at WDFN doing some impression work of his own. He's a nice guy...and funny! You'll see us pictured with our radio friends [from the left] Stoney, his wife Cindy, Matt Sheppard (Ole' Shep), his wife Lisa, and Wojo. It was through Stoney, and Frank, that put us pretty close to the stage! Thanks a bunch!!!

Spring is in the air! At least that's what we're counting on anyway!  Thanks for all of your emails on the Mick Morris Alien Video, and since we've received so many, wanting to know if it's real or not, we'll answer all of you at the same time - yes the video is real. Now as far as the alien - that is for you to decide.   Mick has a few things that he wanted to share...
2-29-08

Hey friends how's it goin? Sorry I haven't written lately but have been super swamped with homework!  And basketball - which by the way the Brighton Blizzards have now won two games - hooray team! We all worked really hard to do so too!  So hard that Ian broke his nose - but he is fine now.  Everybody on my team really works together and hustles! It's totally cool.  Hope you have a great week and ttyl!

.  It's some of Mick's best editing, writing and directing and it's hilarious! Thanks for all of your emails from yesterday, and we will be getting back to you and have all of your drawings up very soon on our "your sketches" page!

Latest news on the book front is that 'The Abominable Snowman...A Frozen Nightmare' will be coming soon! And more good news is on the way!

Here's the latest with Mick:

Hey everyone! Hope you had fun yesterday! I know I did! Let's see, we are into basketball season and I have been busy making movies...as you can see my mom brags about them (above) I heard from Nathan and he made a movie too-even though he gets to go on the real sets with his dad all the time. Okay, gotta go...got a ton, and I mean a ton of homework to do. YUK! Plus basketball practice tonight! I'll have some cool news for you next week!

2-10-08
Brrrrrrrrrr! Okay it's a little chilly out wouldn't you say?  But here is something you can do...send us a self-addressed envelope with two stamps (the post office makes us do that if there is anything heavier than paper inside the envelope) and we will send you one of our brand new totally cool bookmarks! Free!  But make sure your envelope is neatly addressed to yourself and that there are two stamps on the envelope to yourself (otherwise we can't mail it). Put that envelope in another one and send it to: Mick Morris Free Bookmark, 9864 E. Grand River, Suite 110, #244,  Brighton, MI 48116 and we will happily send you one!  Here's the latest in Mick thoughts...

Hey everyone, hope your cool with the cold weather (ha - get it?). Anyway I've been AIMing with a lot of friends and some of them want to know why Sissy drives me crazy.  Well here is a perfect example - this is an email she sent me yesterday.

Hi Mick   Why are you so lame and you haven't written back to me? Do you think that you can just avoid me?  I am your cousin you know.  So anyway I wanted to know if boys think that leggings look cool on girls? Also, I am totally excited to come over to your parents house next weekend, but can you make sure that your mom makes salad for me?  Anyway my friend got a love letter. Who do you like? I like Jared.  And I got some totally cool new pink sneakers for spring.  Gotta go! See ya!

Leggings! Pink Sneakers! Salad! And who do I like?!!! UGH! Sissy bugs me!

Hope that everybody is keeping warm...Especially if you're hitting the slopes! We have a busy week coming up with lots of exciting meetings for some of our upcoming new plans - but for right now they're a secret, as soon as the plans are in place you'll be the first we tell. For all of our great friends asking about the next book, 'Abominable Snowman...A Frozen Nightmare!' Things have been a little delayed because of our new series 'Ghost Board Posse Book #1 London Screaming!' A totally scary book which will give you ultimate chills! But we are working on Abominable, so we'll keep you posted. Here's Mick...

MMB
Hey everybody, what a crazy week! Basketball started and it was a blast having my dad coach! Plus I got lucky enough to have a lot of my friends from school on my team. School has been, well, what can I say - school. Report cards are coming out in a couple of weeks and I think I did pretty good. On Monday two of my classes change and for one of them I have gym - yuk that means that I will have to change clothes and then race like a madman to Martin's class trying not to be a millimeter of a second late! Anyway my pal Joey is on his way over and were gonna jam on Guitar Hero-ya gotta love that game. Hey forgot to tell ya, my bud Nathan and I keep in touch by email and he gets to go to the SAG awards tonight! DUDE! Like you are so luckeeeeeyyyy! Have an awesome week!

Okay, so I like snow and everything and enjoy snowboarding occassionally but when it gets to be this time of year, I am ready for some fun in the sun.  Does anybody have any cool vacations planned? All I know is our next vacation is to more snow! But that's cool, I'll just make the best of it.  So today I forgot my homework and that was a major drag because it was done, but I left it at home! If I were a teacher I'd cut a kid a break! Hey, I am looking forward to basketball...and since we do have a break between now and the next Myth Solving mission, my dad is going to coach with my friends dad!  Is that totally cool or what?  Stay warm! ttyl MM

The top three entries will be able to view their stories right here on the Mick Morris website and will each receive a set of books! So watch for that next week.

New features?  Check out the "MICK SNAPS" on the front page featuring action figures  we found that look like Mick, Nathan, and Sissy.  Basically, it's just like a comic strip that we'll swap our every week or so.  If you have an idea for one, email it here.

Also, we have had sooooo many questions in regards to Mick Morris himself that we are excited to be adding a weekly blog from Mick , so here we go!

MICK MORRIS BLOG:
Hey everyone how's it goin? I gotta say that aside from trying to catch up with some reading for my AR quiz, I have just been enjoying myself with some of the latest games that I got. Especially for my new PSP. It's awesome and totally cool how I can log on the web with it.

This past week was a blast because it was my birthday and I had a sleepover with some great friends...you guys know who you are! We totally spooked ourselves out by telling ghost stories all night and then the next day you won't believe when we recorded ourselves with my video camera in the mirror of the bathroom doing that old tale of 'Bloody Mary' something really happened and I am not joking! This weird hissing sound was picked up on the camera. We were all totally freaked out...and I know it's not just because we stayed up till 4 am - much to my parents telling us to go to sleep - lol. So if any of you have had any freaky experiences like that, drop me an email and let me know! Anyway I am going to have to try to talk them into looking into that freaky myth! So back to school tommorow -YUK!
