Remember TikTok?
Remember TikTok?
Because I promote my YouTube channel so much here on this site, this is just a friendly reminder that I’m on TikTok, too, so if that’s your main video content platform on the Web, you can find me here. Lots of videos up, mostly Pop Culture stuff. Fun place despite some controversey surrounding the platform. I just like sharing superheroes and monsters on there.
Hope to see you there!
Peace.

Status report – 041724:
All right, we’ve got a full roster going on over here. Between the stuff you see on a daily basis and working on stuff behind the scenes that you’ll see eventually, we have our hands full.
Right now we’re:
1) Writing AXIOM-MAN: THE SUMMONING
2) Freelance editing for a client
3) Creating daily content for you both here on this blog and across the Web
4) Getting the second season of the Realm of Heroes and Monsters: Story Time podcast ready for launch (I’m building a queue to ensure you get it weekly)
And a day job.
But basically, our creative focus is on the Axiom-man books for this year. My main goal is to get the first drafts done by summer with, say, mid-July completion at the latest. Then all the heavy lifting is done and it’s just an issue of cleaning things up before publication.
The secret to getting all the above done and maintaining the schedule is just that: maintaining the schedule. Work on something every day and eventually you’ll get what you need out of it.
Back to work.

Why I Post What I Do – Author Blogs
Many author blogs or websites are just about that: writing and books.
Which is 100% fine. I used to do it. Many others I know still do it. But do you see that site banner up there? It says three things: Writer, Artist, Creator. And it’s the latter part that explains why I don’t just post about books and comics (as awesome as those are).
I’ve talked about it before and I’ll mention it again, this site is about the long game in my creator/creative journey. It’s a showcase of the various crafts I practice. It’s also an information and entertainment source for you.
Why the hotwheels? Why the Funko Pops!? Why the action figures and playing cards? Because the film medium is something I also enjoy. My skillset might not be top-notch (most of what I do behind the scenes is based off what I learned in high school multimedia class 25 years ago . . . and it still works).
These creations and showcases are meant to compliment the books and comics and show that those things are made by a fan for the fans.
Some stumbles across one of my posts via a search engine and soon they are whisked into a realm of heroes and monsters and fandom entertainment. Author blogs can be more than just books and writing, if you want.
It’s that simple.
Like I always say, there’s a method to the madness.
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.
