I'm glad you enjoyed OBiNT. Have you also read Why Stuff Matters? I feel that "Stuff" more easily lends itself to a sequel. Sadly, the publisher has gone out of business and my agent has been unable to place any of my other novels, of which there are plenty. You can always keep watch on my website--jenwaldo.com--and believe me, when another of my manuscripts has been accepted for publication I'll post it there. (less)

What mystery in your own life could be a plot for a book?

While the authorities caught the murderer, he had an extremely low IQ and wasn't even articulate enough to give a reason for the killing.

The rich man was powerful and also known for being creepy, vindictive, and violent; and there was a general feeling that this powerful man arranged the murder as a way to send a message to the brother. While the murderer spent the rest of his life in prison, I wasn't the only one who felt that we didn't get the whole story and that justice was not served. (less)

Vile Recurrence

Some hang on to grudges formed long ago. Parents were harsh or begrudging. Friends were duplicitous or disloyal. No one wants to be visited by the sour times from the past, but it seems that most often it’s the bad memories that come to call. Why is that? Is replaying the low moments filling a hunger?
