It's a strange thing to read about one's self in the third person (except here in the forum we're every one's got something to say about someone . . . or use to). Still people seem to be liking what they see. So for you all I'll post this fight scene exclusively.

Martial artist and contributor to KFTC Stacey Nemour, had some nice things to say about the book:
The book Little Monk and the Mantis is a thrilling tale from Hollywood screenwriter John Fusco of one boy's search for self-expression, courage and the peaceful, non-violent teachings at the root of true martial arts. This book is accompanied by beautiful art illustration by Patrick Lugo, who is art director for Kung Fu Tai Chi magazine
This is the fascinating story of how the Praying Mantis style came to be.
thats awesome! congrats!!
For whoso comes amongst many shall one day find that no one man is by so far the mightiest of all.
Now if only I could get her (and just about anyone else) to write up some Amazon.com customer reviews I would be fly-kicking with joy!
well not really, but it would sure be cool.
