My family spent many summer afternoons at Connie Lueck field, watching our cousins play baseball. Loads of fun, it was one of the inspirations for my brother Phillip MacArthur’s book, Summer, Broken, illustrated by my sister Anna. It’s a young adult story about a boy named Kenny who just wants to play baseball but gets embroiled in haunted houses, disguises and magic in a whimsical and nostalgic summer adventure. It can be found on Lulu.com by searching for the title and author name. [Or by going here.]
The homeschooled children of an English professor and an art teacher, my siblings and I have always been interested in creative storytelling.Read the rest here.
I also refer to the statistically documented discrimination against males in science fiction publishing. The study I mean is this one, conducted by author Jon Del Arroz, for which they tried to silence him and sabotage his career.

Because of the GDPR, EU citizens can no longer read the Aitkin Age column :(
Have you ever written of your brother's book before? If not I've already read about it somewhere else.
Sorry for the delay in replying -- I somehow missed this comment! Anyway, I did do a quick announcement post when the book first came out, so that might be what you're thinking of.
