I’m sorry to say I’m still working on the next book. I’ve tried to arrange things so I can write more and release my books a little closer together, but I’m afraid I still haven’t figured out the best way to speed things up without giving myself a panic attack or something. :o So far I’m finding that I’m kind of stuck at my current speeds.
But… never give up, never surrender! :D (Who else loves that movie?) I’m going to keep trying and I hope I’ll be able to get Of Monsters and Love out soon enough not to disappoint anyone too much.
I have to ask is the love between Alexander Dane and Laliari what helped inspire the Monsters and Men series?
Chief and Laliari? I’ve never thought about that, but now that you mention it, of course it has to have been something of an influence! Those are some of my favorite scenes in the movie! Those and the scenes between Alex and Quellek. The way that ended broke my heart. :(
Oops, didn’t remember that correctly. It’s been a while since I last saw that movie. I agree the scenes with Quellek were very good and it was upsetting but it really got Alex motivated or back “into character”. Anyway, thank you for answering my question.
You’re welcome. :) I watched it last week again, but it had been quite a while since the last time I’d seen it. After hearing about Alan Rickman’s passing, I wanted to watch him in something funny. He was such a great actor.
I am looking forward to the next book – any next book really! Is there anything coming soon?
Yes! Of Monsters and Love is coming up next, should be within the next month or two. After that, I’m not sure. Some of that depends on how things are going with the writing. I’m a bit slow. I just have to let the stories take as long as they take, and I’m never quite sure when they’ll be finished until they’re done. :)
What about Gerald’s lot? I am so waiting for that one.
Yes, still working on that one too! For good or bad, I tend to work on more than one book at a time and I’ve been working on new books for all the series over the last several months. I’m really hoping to get them all out in the next couple of months. :D
Any news? :)
Yes! Things are finally moving again, and I am hoping to have Of Monsters and Love out within a month or so and new books in the other series (Gerald’s Lot, His to Take, and The King’s Deception) starting a month or so later. It’s taken me longer than I’d like, but I’m not always in charge of my creative side! :D
