New Year, New Book

I know it’s been a minute since I posted here, but I’m not going to make any excuses. Aside from, you know, this one: I’m lazy. This will come as a shock to both of you, I’m sure. 


Anyway, this post is meant to serve notice that I’m working on my next book. A lot of people (by which I mean my mom and some guy in the NYC subway who thought I was Brad Meltzer) have asked me when my next novel would b

Quotes by Dennis Fisher  (?)

“So I’m pedaling along, doing pretty good, when I come to the train tracks about a block from our apartment. Remember, I’d had a beer or two at this point. Maybe eleven. So I start to get all wobbly and next thing you know, the front tire hits the tracks sideways, wedges into the gap by the rail and here I go right over the handlebars. I hit the ground, and look up and I see the nachos coming at me in slow motion. I can see the chips spinning in the air and the chili and cheese sauce separating into these big globs, and it’s like I’m in a bad kung fu movie. I couldn’t move. So the whole mess lands right on my chest. Cheese, jalapenos, chili, all that shit.”
Dennis Fisher, Be Gone

“So,” JD continued, “here’s our hero on his Trek, drunk as a Kennedy on election day, and he’s got this big mess of nachos balanced on his handlebars…”
Dennis Fisher, Be Gone

“As I recall, the story goes something like this. I was lying on an inflatable alligator in the small pool behind a large rented house on Key West. A pair of high-fidelity, high-priced speakers mounted on the outside wall of the pool house was playing a mix of Tom Petty, Will Kimbrough, and Zac Brown,”
