Two books are in progress right now: "Children in the Hands of an Angry God", which follows the surviving children as they try to make their way to Florida; and "Bronx Apocalypse", which happens at the same time as the original book, but covers the story of Angela and Chris, focusing on the rise and fall of Hunts Point. I keep promising people that one or the other will be done next year: hopefully, next year will be the "next year" that keeps me from being a liar.

"Yuletide Snacks", a fantasy police procedural. When I lived on Bonaire, I got introduced to Sinterklaas and the Zwarte Pieteren. Unlike Santa, Sinterklaas isn't satisfied with leaving bad children a lump of coal: he kidnaps them and forces them to work in his Spanish sweatshop, making gifts for the good children.
While writing "Everything I Know About Zombies, I Learned in Kindergarten", I came across the legend of the cuco: a large, shape-changing boogeyman that eats bad children.
It occurred to me that the cucuy must view Sinterklaas as an exotic food importer. The rest of the book flows from that premise.

Came to me while getting irritated by Carl and T-Dog during Season 1 of "The Walking Dead". While it has improved in later seasons, the first season had two classes of characters: white men with guns took the lead, everyone else was a prop.
