I think that the hardest thing is upping the danger/excitement of each subsequent book. To me, what makes Lord of the Rings so engaging is Tolkien's ability to "up the ante" from book to book. � Todd Strasser

I think the hardest thing about a trilogy is upping the danger/excitement of each subsequent book. To me, what makes Lord of the Rings so engaging is Tolkien's ability to "up the ante" from book to book. Good luck!

Even though it feels like I’ve arrived at the end-of-the-world dance ten years too late, I’m just finishing a dystopian science fiction adventure novel, The Beast of Cretacea.

You have to start. So many people say they’re going to start writing just as soon as �. And you’ve got to read in order to develop a literary standard to which you can compare your writing and revisions.

Chrissy,
Funny you should ask. I hadn't played in years and then caught the bug big time this fall and even went out and bought my first electric guitar! I've been having a blast trying -- poorly -- to play ZZ Top, Stones, Tom Petty, etc. Have you discovered all the tutorials on Youtube?

Emily,
Good question. I don't really have a favorite genre. I've recently finished The Beast of Cretacea, my first sci-fi adventure. My next book will probably be in the steampunk genre.

Desiree,
Thanks for your question. Earlier this year I published No Place, a YA novel about a middle class family that suddenly finds itself homeless. Like the novels you mentioned, it is realistic fiction.
