Cover and Title Reveal: Technically Magic

It is novel announcement time!


Hey all,

I’m super excited to tell you all about my new novel, Technically Magic, which will be published on PI day, 3/14, in 2026.


I had a lot of fun writing this novel. Having an intelligent young character who can only speak numbers was super hard to write, but so much fun! His interactions were so different than his flow of consciousness.


The combination of ideas was fun, too. I have always wanted to be a superhero. I would love to make my three boys and daughter superheroes, too. This led to the idea of how this could become a reality in our world—the real world. It would have to happen with modern technology that could really exist now or in the near future—a technology that is . . . Technically Magic.


I’ll be releasing some of the first few chapters online over the next few months. I hope you enjoy!


Your author friend,


J. Abram Barneck
