Thanks for reading and writing in. I would love to bring Austin Clay back. I have a new Columbus book out in May and then will probably get back to work on a follow up novel to The Right Hand. Maybe bring Clay and Columbus together? (less)

When I'm writing the Columbus books, early on, I'll find an idea to keep bouncing back to... a theme or a phrase or an image or symbol that I just keep hammering that sort of echoes the story of that book. I guess it's like a melody in a song. For Dark Men, it was a tiger. For A Different Lie, it was bubbles popping. For Columbus, there are fishing reference throughout. I just opened The Way I Die with Columbus thinking of all the different ways he could meet his end. As I was writing, that turn of phrase just kept coming to me. I can't explain it other than it came naturally. Thanks for the question!(less)
