The real thing, and it&#8217;s gorgeous. I think this is my 6th book to be published, which kind of blows me away when I stop to think about it, and so far, the thrill of holding a new book that I&#8217;ve written hasn&#8217;t diminished at all. Every book is its own thing, with its own creative challenges and rewards, so to hold each in its final form brings its own unique thrill. I hope people like this one. As I seem to say with all my books, I&#8217;m trying something new, stepping into uncharted story territory. I&#8217;m actually working on the sequel at the moment, and I can&#8217;t wait for you all to see where the story goes. But I&#8217;m getting ahead of myself. THIS book comes out later in the month, and I&#8217;ll be having a book launch party at The King&#8217;s English, my favorite independent bookstore in the world.
