Oregon Vacation Highlight Reels and Shorts Part One
During the first week of August, I took my first vacation in approximately seventeen years. It was much needed as I was very burnt out from working.
My girlfriend (author Melinda Marshall) and I had a great time. We decompressed, got to relax, took in some sights, and even the airport experience and airplane ride (Westjet) was pleasant.
Below are some hightlight reels and shorts from the trip. Hope you enjoy them.
Please be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel for more free entertainment!
Peace.
More Oregon Vacation Highlight Reels and Shorts to come. Stay tuned . . .
Read a book until next post. 🙂
Cheers!
vLog – The Pacific Ocean
vLog – The Pacific Ocean
Here’s a new vLog while staring out onto the Pacific Ocean on the West coast in Lincoln City, Oregon. I had my feet in the water and even took a slurp of it (then spat it out–so salty) just to say I’ve been in–and tasted–both oceans. I saw the Atlantic Ocean in Florida and now the Pacific Ocean in Oregon.
Here are some thoughts while staring out onto the never-ending blue of beautiful water and the white crests of waves.

Since this is a vLog, don’t forget to check out the About Me page on this site for insight into what I do. Thanks.
A.P. Fuchs TikTok Channel Introduction
A.P. Fuchs TikTok Channel Introduction
Here you go, folks, my TikTok introduction video which I finally had time to create. I do hope you subscribe to my channel. What’s cool about TikTok is I can quickly vLog about things, showcase collectibles, promote my books and comics, and just have a good time without going through the longer video production that I normally do for my YouTube videos. (Which, by the way, as of this writing, I have two cool long videos to put together and post so stay tuned.)
So, yeah, here I am on TikTok. Come join the party!
If you need to contact me, as always, use the contact page on this site. Peace.
Edit: When I set up this post, the video showed up fine but when it posted-posted, the video gets cut off. I’m going to leave it up as it’s probably WordPress and the TikTok embed feature working out a few bugs. Hopefully it’ll post in full soon.
A.P. Fuchs Now on TikTok!
Well, I caved and got hooked up on TikTok. Already posted some short videos. Will post more but I don’t know how much is too much too often so I’ll regulate it at a moderate pace to start. It’ll be an assortment of things I find amusing plus an emphasis on Pop Culture, of course. BookTok is on the list. I have ideas but it’ll take a while to get through all my books so plenty of content to create and post before needing something new.
These TikTok videos will be different from my YouTube videos as they’re short-short whereas my YouTube videos are 3 to 5 minutes long, roughly.
Wanna join me and Tok?

Thanks.
With summer drawing to a close, it means it’s time to get off my summer schedule and back to my regular one. Problem is, my regular schedule doesn’t fit what I have coming down the pike.
Presently, I have six books in production and each one needs my attention. I’m finally at that stage where I don’t need to multi-task with them but can work on them one at a time. This will speed up release.
But I want to write. I want to get started on THE BATTLE OF POWER trilogy in THE AXIOM-MAN SAGA.
I’m going to have to spend some think time on this because the variables between my professional life and my personal one don’t always flow together.
Bottom line is I want to get writing and just focus on that.

I’m feeling much better. The lingering effects of covid have lifted. I’m still not 100% due to other issues but the brain fog is gone and I’m getting things done.
All is on schedule for the summer releases, including GIGANTI-GATOR DEATH MACHINE: TRIPLE FEATURE.
Unfortunately, I won’t get the Axiom-man books done in time for comic con. I can write fast enough but it’s the publication lead time that’s the problem.
I’m going to still keep working, though. One step at a time.
Having been so focused on getting books out to you, a lot of little things have piled up both professionally and personally. Today I’m working my way through a laundry list of to-do items like drafting up this week’s issue of THE CANISTER X TRANSMISSION.
I won’t likely get it all done and I have a class tonight. By the time that’s over, it’ll be time to wind down before bed.
Anyway, sometimes you need to set aside a day to play catch-up.
The Daily Schedule of a Writer/Artist 2
The Daily Schedule of a Writer/Artist 2
Since recovering from being ill–and I’m still recovering–here’s what my current daily schedule looks like:
Wake up and pet the dogs. I’m usually up before everybody else.
Post my daily Good Morning post on Facebook and give the day’s positivity rating. The rating is given based on how I feel at that exact moment.
Make coffee.
Have a small bite to eat.
Have coffee and surf the feeds and check email, taking note of which ones I need to respond to later.
By now Melinda is up so I have more coffee and spend time with her before she has to go to work.
Work on the current project. As of this writing, it’s proofing the galley for the reissue of REDEMPTION OF THE DEAD.
Break
Non-committal work. By this I mean work I can do and get done but not share with anybody yet (i.e. a blog post, the newsletter, YouTube video, etc.).
Break
Work on the current project.
Break
Review and share the non-committal work
Personal tasks (i.e. personal correspondence, bills, etc.).
Break
Nap
I may or may not call it a day at this point. Depends what time it is. Melinda gets off work at 4:30 and then it’s time to get ready for supper.
Evening walk with Melinda and then a quick walk with the dogs.
Chill out time.
Bed.
And that’s the daily schedule of a writer/artist.
Not Dead Yet
Not Dead Yet
I haven’t blogged here in nearly a year, which makes me a hypocrite because I used to stress blogging fairly frequently. Thing is, I fell ill again and had to put a full stop on most things while I recovered. I was able to pick at odds and ends but wasn’t able to get back into the full swing of things.
Over the past few weeks I’ve been as productive as ever and finally brought some book stuff out of the darkness and into the light. I did a lot of work and the following is an update as to where my various projects are at.
In no particular order:
Giganti-gator Death Machine: Triple Feature – with the editor.
The Canister X Transmission: Year Four – with the formatter.
The Canister X Transmission: The Long Year Five – with the formatter.
Expected release: Summer 2022
Reissues:
Blood of the Dead – with the formatter.
Possession of the Dead – with the formatter.
Redemption of the Dead – beginning of final proofread.
Surprise Project – In pieces but not in a bad way. Just need to assemble everything and write something for it.
Expected release: Fall 2022
The Axiom-man Saga:
The Summoning – to be written soon.
Episode No. 4: Transformations – to be written.
New Dawn – to be written.
These three Axiom-man books will be written back-to-back because these three stories are The Battle of Power Trilogy, so essentially one story told over three parts. My goal is to have them out by Winnipeg Comic Con in the fall. I know the above looks like a lot and overshooting the year but you have to remember what these projects are and how close each one is to being finished.
Other items:
Fredrikus – I have one episode inked and ready for scanning. The comic is temporarily on the backburner while I finish up the above.
The Canister X Transmission: The Very Long Year Six – I plan to resume the newsletter at a later date. I want to wait until I’m fully back up and running so I have something to write to you every week.
YouTube – I have a package here at Axiom-man Central that I want to do an unboxing video for so look for that soon. I also plan to make more videos once I’m fully back in the saddle.
Canister X – I’ll blog when I can and when I have something to say.
And there you have it: A complete picture of what’s happening with various projects on the go. Let’s hope my health keeps up.
Cheers.
