Stories from a guy who's told
a few stories on stage.
After 47 years and 10,000+ live shows, the stories started spilling out of the show and onto the page. Nine published. More on the way. All on Amazon.

The books work even better
when I'm in the room.
Many of these stories started life on stage. So when I bring my Mr. Twisty Reading Assembly to your school, the kids who heard the story live often go home and ask for the book — and the kids who already know the book lose their minds when the author walks through the door.
BOCES-eligible. Flexible scheduling. Coordinated book orders available.
