Larry Crane
I originally wrote a play (named Transit of Venus) that was the essence of the major conflict of the story in Missing Girls. It was read in several theaters but never made it to the stage. I adapted the the play to novel form. The process resulted in a much richer story, I think. The novel has been well received, and still elicits a pretty strong response from readers/audience members--- very often negatively. But there often is very positive reaction as well, and that seems to get people reading it.

I know there are lots of writers who keep up with a daily regimen of putting words on on the screen, but I have to be turned on to an idea of a book before I can even start. But once started, it's gang busters.
