I am happy to announce that my Children's book The Oochie Goochie Ghost, a story I wrote 20+years ago based upon the stories my dad told tell us as kids in the 70's has now been published.  With the help of a mother daughter team P.J. HarteNaus and Kelly Scrima, who own  Whistleslick Press and the wonderful Illustrator Ashley Casalino, we are excited to bring this book to life!!!  Below is a synopsis of the book.
 
Jimmy, his dog Fufu, and three friendly ghosts—Hurkamer, Alfonso, and Penelope—are coming home after a fun night of trick-or-treating. But something strange is following them home, and they don't even know it! Jimmy hears a noise in the house and remembers a spooky story his dad once told him about the Oochie Goochie Ghost, a mysterious ghost who sneaks into children's homes on Halloween night to steal their candy.
 
Could the story really be true? Is the Oochie Goochie Ghost hiding in Jimmy’s house?
There’s only one way to find out!  With a little courage, teamwork, and ghostly cleverness, Jimmy, Fufu, and his three ghostly friends must work together to uncover the mystery.  
 
 I am currently taking pre orders on this book and hoping to get the first books out to everyone before Halloween or shortly thereafter.  We appreciate you and hope that our story of the Oochie Goochie ghost is told to your children in the years to come!
