This blog is now of legal age to drink: it's 21. Yep, post #21 this are it, and the days are dwindling down, folks. Our last book party is TOMORROW! Oh, gawd. I'm ready. We do have three succeeding events--a panel and a store gig in December and the Noe Valley Authors Festival in March--but I think you all get the idea about events by now. What more is there to say about more?
So, the next post will be the last post for the Ginger Snaps: Photos & Stories blog. But, no tears yet, this being only the penultimate. Moving on is good or, at least, it's life.
David and I are moving on to our book #2, which we'll start working on in January. We've been cheating a little, thinking and talking. How can you not talk when you're roommates? Okay, I withdraw that question. You may have a question to replace it, like, what's the new book going to be about? We have a theme and a structure and a plan but, having done Ginger Snaps, we know that plans and structure and even theme have a way of changing so no sneak peeks I'm afraid. You might be peeking at something that will look substantially different in a year when we're done. Hope it suffices to say that it will involve equal parts visuals and text and be hot.
I have already moved on to my individual second book. It will be similar to Ginger Snaps, a combination of art and fiction: artist Michael Broderick's gay erotic line drawings and the short stories they tell me. We've got a great theme/s and have talked thru a format. I can't wait for his drawings so I can begin writing! Check out Michael's art at www.hottlead.com.
Michael has done several books, two of his own and two as an illustrator. On ours we are co-authors of course. Check out G Is for GROUNDSKEEPER for the high heat level you can expect from our book together.
I'm also going to shift to a more general literary blog sometime next year but more about that in my Very Last Ginger Snaps Blog Post!
Your friend
Rick
