"The 'Harry Potter' fans haven't gone away," Spotson says. "They've just found other releases for their cravings. I'm happy to be one of them!" He adds, "Since they've all grown up, all my wizards are young adults in their 20's—perfect match for my readers!" He laughs, "These modern wizards are definitely more in-your-face. They know they have magic, which is far more powerful than that of Harry Potter, and they're not afraid to use it! For example, in The Four Kings, wizards take over today's North America!"

As well as interviews and readings relating to his published works of magic, Seeking Dr. Magic, The Four Kings, and Delusional, Spotson plans on giving subscribers to his channel sneak peeks at his upcoming projects and a chance to have their questions answered live. Spotson's new YouTube channel is available at https://www.youtube.com/scottspotson and will give him a forum for deepening and enhancing his fans' understanding of his books.

And that's not all! Spotson also has a humor book, You Know You're Thin When... and based on that book, there's a cartoon contest which ends December 15!  Free copies of the books will be awarded for correctly guessing the best cartoons, plus $100 for the best new humor blurb! Perfect for the holiday season!  For the contest, see here.

Spotson also has another popular book, Life II, a time travel scenario in which a 42-year-old man, in 2013, finds himself as his 16-year-old teenage self in 1987, and resolutely sets out a new path in his life.  It already has earned a glowing Kirkus Review, and is a recommended book by the top-notch book website Book Bub (over one million subscribers) for December 15, 2013.

Spotson is a Canadian novelist who excels in imagining scenes of intrigue and adventure within ordinary lives while daydreaming, then pulls together various plots to create a compelling story.
