Sometimes I think my fight club is way too much "fight" & not enough "club." I don't know, forget it, I'm not supposed to talk about it.
Maine booksellers are the best - the Whyte Python World Tour published in paperback today, and it was so fun hitting the road with my favorite roadie, reconnecting with all the awesome booksellers who really champion local authors. Freshly signed copies all over Greater Portland!

It's always exciting to see a box arrive from your publisher! These handheld beauties showed up this afternoon - just in time for beach season, the paperback edition of The Whyte Python World Tour hits shelves June 23! @doubledaybooks @vintagebooks
My kids are not allowed to read even the first paragraph of The Whyte Python World Tour. I wrote an abridged version for them, and after she read it my 10 y/o daughter was inspired to make this awesome poster for the book The paperback hits shelves June 23!

My favorite part of the Kentucky Derby was when Great White did a backflip and then tried to fight everyone. It’s like nobody explained to him what he was there for, so he just tried some stuff

Do not look up what this book is about.
Don’t read the jacket copy.
If you've got any affinity for 80’s hair metal (I don’t) or an attachment to 80’s pop culture (I very much do) or just want to read something utterly charming & unexpected, read this.
Bravo @TravisKennedy !!

Daniel Wilson's HOLE IN THE SKY and Travis Kennedy's WHYTE PYTHON WORLD TOUR are both recognized by the Alex Awards as best adult books that appeal to teen audiences. Congratulations! americanlibrariesmagazine.or…
This is a BIG ONE! The American Library Association announced today that they're honoring the Whyte Python World Tour with the prestigious 2026 Alex Award, given to books that are for adults but carry special appeal to teenagers. Thank you ALA!

In the 80s, the CIA sent Whyte Python behind the Iron Curtain to bring it crashing down with the power of metal! 🤘

Penguin Michael Joseph distributes The Whyte Python World Tour in the massive UK publishing territory, and they facilitated a great back and forth for me with Ali at Shots Magazine about writing, reading, music, family, and what's next. Enjoy!

Just finished reading "Whyte Python World Tour" by @TravisKennedy last night. Easily the best fiction/storytelling about the '80s that I've read in a LONG time. (And there's already a movie in the works!) Podcast interview with Travis coming in a few days! Great conversation! (Can't wait to hear the actual song "Tonight, For Tomorrow" in the flick! This book needs its own soundtrack!)
I had a really fun conversation with Kelli Skye Fadroski about The Whyte Python World Tour, and her fantastic article is running in about a dozen daily newspapers across greater LA. SoCal friends, check out the print edition Sunday! ocregister.com/2025/08/06/te…

I love seeing The Whyte Python World Tour getting such nice features in bookstores all over the country! Yesterday, I was sent messages from friends within an hour of each other visiting Mitchell's Book Corner on Nantucket Island, MA, and Maria's Bookshop in Durango, CO.
