The Wishing Shelf Book Awards gave Bigfoot's cover some love earlier this year. They just announced the Finalists for their book contest. A great big thanks to all the students in the UK who read and voted for Bigfoot Is a Jerk! Winners announced in April! @WishingShelf

[JulieDitchburnPatton @ditchburnpatton]

@KT_Carlisle Are you in CLE?!

[JulieDitchburnPatton @ditchburnpatton]

I'll add your first name, city, and state to the list and give you a dot on the map. Make your state a Bigfoot hot spot! I just added Broken Arrow, Oklahoma today! (Ohio is currently in the lead. 😉) Thanks!

[JulieDitchburnPatton @ditchburnpatton]

When I launched my website, I made sure to add a page to report your Bigfoot Is a Jerk sightings. If you'd like to get your state on the map, you can send a message via my website (click Sightings in the top menu) or message me through social media!
