And now your host, Vic Kundy.

Hi everyone, thanks for listening.

If you've had a Bigfoot encounter of your own and would like to be a guest on the show,

please go to Bigfoot eyewitness.com and submit a report.

I'd love to hear from you. My name is Alex Niven, 29 years old, live in Holenwall, Tennessee. I've been out here for almost a year. Prior to that, I lived out in north of Nashville, Tennessee.

I started writing a children's book recently due to a experience I had back in 2014.

It was of actually the first time

I had an encounter with the Bigfoot

at that time ever. And it's been one of multiple ones since then, especially since I've recently moved out here to Holenwald. It's been citing sounds, you name it, and it kind of just, you know, started a little fire and got my interest

on writing stories. I thought it would be a good idea to write a children's book and try to find a character

that's relatable and fun and came up with a Bigfoot. Got the name Bobby Bigfoot actually

for my stepdad. His name is Bobby. There's an additional character in that book that's a name Lori Littlefoot that's also named after my mom. I thought both names kind of rolled off the tongue and fun little story for children but I put a lot of effort into the story so even adults can have fun reading it.

Right now I'm working on four books total. The first one should be out in April of next year. Currently,

the illustrator is finishing up all the illustrations. So I've been working on that.

All in all, it's just been going smooth on that part. I have a couple book signing events going on for next year. Tamed up with the U.S. Bigfoot patrol, going to meet out in Gatlinburg, Tennessee.

And to kind of go back to really, you know, my first encounter was probably, want to say back in 2014,

it was like the early months.
