Hi there!
I believe the Lost Chapter is still available on my Patreon page, you can try there. There is also a new book in the series coming out - THE FIRST SCARLET DOOR. It's releasing in September in the US. I'm not sure of the release date in Spain yet. We may announce that while I'm there. I've got a bunch of appearances in Spain later this month, including Saint Jordi in Barcelona on 4/23. Hope to see you there!

Yep. The next book in the series is called THE FIRST SCARLET DOOR and releases in September 2026. Preorder links are currently going up!

Aww, thanks! Riverrun Books in Portsmouth NH has signed copies of all my books.

At the moment HYBRID isn't available anywhere. Sorry! If you're looking for a JD fix, my next novel, BEHIND A CLOSED DOOR, releases in May.

I don't have any control over that but I can tell you the Kindle app for your phone or tablet is free (that's what I use).

I'd never say never.

That is an excellent question. My German publisher has published all my books but DRACUL and I'm honestly not sure why. I'll check with my agent. Thanks for pointing it out!

Series. I'm not allowed to say much about it but it was mentioned here:

As long as other services continue to outbid Apple for the exclusive rights to the book, it's doubtful it will appear on Apple. It's available at Amazon, Kindle, and others.

Maybe.
I was told the above answer is too short so I'm stating it again for emphasis -

Covid slowed things down but all three books in the series are with a studio and moving forward.
J.D. Barker
Yes, I have a Spanish publisher. If the book you're looking for isn't in Spanish yet, I'm sure it will be shortly. Thanks!

Absolutely! Working with others takes me in creative directions I might not travel on my own. I also find it helps me recharge my batteries.

For me, it's about learning. Any time I get the opportunity to pick the brain of someone who can teach me something new, I'm all over it. I'm always striving to improve my craft and I've got the best of the best teaching me their tricks. The next time I sit down to write a new book on my own, it will be better for it.
I'm blessed that so many people love my writing but I didn't get there overnight. I spent 20+ years working with others - determining what worked for them and what didn't, then incorporating that into my own work. Without all that, none of my books would be what they are today.

Who doesn't like ringing a bell? That's awesome. Maybe it's time to visit Ames, IA. I'm overdue for a road trip and the looming apocalypse seems to be coming to an end :)
Please thank your staff for me. I think books have been an escape for many of us throughout all this and without people like you willing to go in and work, things would have been a far worse.
Best,

Thank you for the kind words! I wrote the official prequel to DRACULA titled DRACUL with Bram Stoker's great grandnephew, Dacre Stoker. I also have a special edition of DRACULA where I wrote the introduction and added some bonus material.
