So, Alice in No-Man’s-Land has been out for a week or two now. It hasn’t jumped to the top of the NYT Bestseller list of course, but it’s getting a very good response so far. More or less everything has gone about as I expected so far – the ‘having to coordinate everything yourself’ part, …

I really enjoyed writing the Revivors series, but there is a special joy that comes with breaking ground on a completely new tale. The Burn Zone is that tale. This afternoon I verified with my editor at Roc that The Burn Zone is a go. The contract will (I believe) include one other book and …
