The first is a sequel to Dogs Don't Talk, with the working title, "Girls Don't Wrestle". It goes into the main character, Benjamin's senior year.
The other book I'm working on is a historical, young adult fiction book regarding the blasphemy case of Thomas Aikenhead in 1696. I'm so fortunate to be a part of the Goodreads community of really fine writers. One I discovered was Peni Jo Renner, who wrote a book called Puritan Witch. I wish there were more crossover young adult/historical books out there.(less)

There's no way around these two things that I'm aware of, no shortcut.”
