What’s your spirit animal?
Do you feel a strong connection to a certain animal? Do you feel that a type of animal represents your unique essence?
I’m not sure I have a spirit animal, although hedgehogs will always have a soft spot in my heart.



This little prickly critter helped inspire BOY ON HOLD, after all. Did you know, I’m also an illustrator? Here’s my super-realistic hedgehog drawing that appears on the back cover of BOH and also at every chapter heading.
In honor of my birthday this year, I’m hosting a HEDGEHOG GIVEAWAY!
No, not an actual, live hedgehog, silly. I’m talking SOCKS! Adorable, hedgehog socks!





Here’s how to play:
- Post a selfie with BOY ON HOLD on any social media platform (kindle or phone image ok!)
- Tag me and one other hedgehog-loving friend who’d want a chance to win.
- On May 16–my bday—my kids will randomly pick 4 lucky winners!
Post as many times as you’d like to increase your chances! (Now thru 5/16!.US & Canada only…)
