You Heard It Here First

An update from working parent Patrick Hickey, Jr.

"From arcade rats to indie developers, Hickey gives an intimate look at the personalities behind gaming with the passion of a fanboy and the attention of a scholar." 
​-- Cesar R. Bustamante, Jr., New York Daily News

Last August, Patrick Hickey, Jr. shared a great Working Parent Story with us; A Haven for Her Soul. Since then a lot has happened in his life including the publication of his first book, The Minds Behind the Games, which is a collection of interviews with cult and classic video game developers. And not only has Patrick published a book, but people like it as evidenced by its five-star status on Amazon. 

If you are a video game enthusiast, or know one, you may be interested to know that the Kindle version of the book which normally sells for $19.99, is available for $3.99 this week only. (A paperback version is also available.)

Thanks for the update, Patrick. We love hearing back from Working Parent Story authors!

Patrick Hickey, Jr. is a father, husband, and full-time Lecturer of English and Assistant Director of the Journalism program at Kingsborough Community College in Brooklyn, NY. Over the past decade, his video game coverage has been featured in national ad campaigns by Nintendo, Disney and EA Sports.
