Doorways Home is the conclusion to the two-book story begun in Doorways to Arkomo, by Jacqueline Dooley. Picking up immediately where the first installment ended, the author immediately throws the reader back into the fray as Grace's health problems grow, Sorel searches for a cure for her brother, and the dark shadow of the imminent...

We here at MojoFiction have been away for a while. We did not intend to be. But back in June we had just made a huge scientific discovery using our rarely-mentioned PhD in neuroscience from one of the nation's top schools that operates only on the internet and, for some reason, only accepts tuition payments...

Sometimes you create your own moments. Father's Day is arriving soon. Time for more Great Moments in Dad History. We here at MojoFiction have a competitive relationship with our nine-year-old son. This may have led to some bad behavior. For example: Sometimes our son gets up early in the morning just so he can hide out... Continue Reading →
Okay, we're a little late to this article. In our defense, baseball got in the way and, since we're a guy, you are required to accept "baseball" as a valid excuse from us for pretty much everything. Accidentally pushed the red button while visiting the White House? - baseball. Mistook the dog for a towel and used... Continue Reading →

We just thought they had a popcorn surplus they needed to get rid of, but it turns out it was a fundraiser to bankroll... Continue Reading →
We here at MojoFiction celebrated our 40th birthday on Friday night by crying ourselves to sleep because we are now old. But we also celebrated by taking in a Chicago Bulls basketball game on Saturday night. Instead of attending the game with our good friend Mr. Jack N. Coke (along with some regular friends, probably),... Continue Reading →
Originally we planned on blogging live from the Academy Awards, but apparently security at the Kodak theatre decided to keep it tight this year, and somehow we made “the list,” so they stopped us at the back door (we thought we were pretty secure in that cello case) and graciously allowed us to stay in...

"Toad Car! Toad Car! Toad Car!" This was the cheer that greeted MojoFiction as we sat down to watch our son compete in the annual Cub Scout pinewood derby. We don't know if it was right or if it was wrong. But it happened. Before we talk about Toad Car, though, let's explain the pinewood derby... Continue Reading →
We here at MojoFiction delivered a sweet Christmas present this holiday season when we presented our son with tickets to an overnight at the Field Museum of Natural History here in Chicago, an event for kids age 6-12 and their guardians. Last Friday we had to deliver on those tickets, which, it never occurred to us, was... Continue Reading →
