Oooh, this may sound familiar if you've read LfaCH (or seen some of my early posts)!
I didn't know about this specific encounter, so this is cool to learn!!!
Sam White Owl has faced off against Camazotz flocks a couple times, including the cavern search-and-rescue in Volume 1.

The USA feels like it's imploding right now, and my mental health ain't doing super well. I do have a wonderful service dog, but that makes thing easiER, not easy.
However, while Minneapolis fights the good fight, here are some pictures of some smiley-looking Molossus bats!

After hours and hours of concocting the perfect gold paint recipe...Amdûr, Lord of Blades rides to war at last!

This photo goes so hard, I love it. The snowstorm is perfect to demonstrate the classic harsh Scandinavian winter, take advantage of the black-and-white color scheme, and of course obscure the troll. At the same time, the trees being visible gives a sense of scale for just how massive this being is.

2025 was crazy. The bad has been mostly left behind, so here's some of the good!
- I published my very first book! Vol. 1 of Sam White Owl’s Letters from a Cryptid Hunter was a #1 New Release AND a #2 Best-seller!!!
More importantly, I get to share stories and teachings in a new way.

I don't need any gifts, but I can't say these wouldn't be good ones...I'll take the blood over coffee, though, thanks. XD
Merry Christmas! I hope it's a good day, even if you don't celebrate.

The Yakwawiak are creatures from Appalachian + Ohio River Valley Indigenous histories (such as Lenape and Shawnee).
They were huge and shaggy, with giant heads that bore two enormous horns or tusks. Their aggressive nature led to all other beings banding together and destroying them.

The spreadsheet for the LfaCH e-book keywords is done! (Although this was a work in progress photo, haha). Now for categories and the paperback version's. This whole marketing thing really is no joke...🫠

I love this. And we should add thousands of years of Indigenous accounts and centuries of colonial accounts. Oh, and people like Jane Goodall. I didn't ask her about Sasquatch when I met her, but I trust her just a liiittle more than people who have never set foot in the woods in their life, lol. XD

Thank you for your support, and this is silly. XD
I've only sold a FEW copies of LfaCH. But Amazon categories are wild! XD
We need more Indigenous fantasy authors!
It would be cool to say I was a #1 bestseller, haha. But I write to tell stories, and I hope the genre keeps growing!

For the last day of Native/Indigenous American Heritage Month, here’s two big maps showing the distribution of languages and cultures right before European colonization in 1500. Look how diverse we were, and still are! (I’ll give you a papaya if you can find the Taíno! 😄)

Practically all the classic Thanksgiving foods are from Native people: turkey, corn, cranberries, etc. And they are good to eat, but while you do, you can learn the true history of this holiday by listening to those same people! The Wampanoag are here today and every other day of the year.

Hunter research shows humans and cryptids share much of our DNA! Roughly:
- 96%(!) with Sasquatches
- 92% with Ash Men/crawlers
- 86% with kappa
- 85% with amikuk (Weird...)
- 77% with Ozark Howlers
- 71% with taniwha
And more!
In fact, we're genetically related to ALL cryptids...

Predator: Badlands was really good (and surprisingly brutal!), and the creature design was awesome. Weta Workshop always goes hard.
Movies like this always inspire my own creature design, which is obviously the central feature of LFACH. Also very inspirational for my next book...😉
