John Dover Hello Jim,

Thank you for the inquiry. Yes! You can order a signed copy directly from me. Go to http://readjohndover.com and on the first page there is an option to order a paperback for $20 including shipping. If you would like a hard cover, you can adjust the amount while you are in the checkout to $30 and let me know you would like a hardcover.

John Dover Nothing specific. I generally like to come up with a concept, or character and let my brain work it around for a while before I let it hit the page. The longer it sticks with me, the better I know the result will be once I start to put it through the ringer.
John Dover I have a third Johnny Scotch book that is in the works. I am also in the editing process for a horror novel that is based on my short stories from "Tales From the Braided Pony". Kind of a spaghetti western vampire story. Very fun pulpy stuff.

John Dover Getting to meet people that have read my stories and find that I was able to reach them on some level.
John Dover I take myself out of my quiet office and head to a bar or restaurant to soak in the energy and atmosphere. I find this helps to unlock the words that are backed up.
