I love stories. I love consuming them and telling them. Whether as books or comics or movies or interactive role playing games or even on stage doing improv, I just love stories.

I currently work as a graphic designer where I get to tell other people's stories in images and brands. In my spare time I write and illustrate a web comic called The Eldritch Age.

I have a fascination for science, both as it is right now and for the possibilities it opens up in the technological sense but also the philosophical one.

This is where the ideas for my books come from; the clash of thought and science and where, in the long run, it can lead us as a species. ...more

You're probably asked this a lot, but for those of us who LOVED A God in the Shed - Can we expect any more books from you in the near future?

J.-F. Dubeau It's always a thrill to learn someone enjoyed the book. I can't tell you how much that means.

One of the biggest mistakes I made when publishing A God in the Shed was not making it clear that this is a trilogy. It's not cool to the readers and makes the ending of the book feel a little incomplete.

The good news is, the second part of the trilogy comes out in October of this year (in theory). It's titled Song of the Sandman and can be pre-ordered on Amazon or, if you want a signed copy with bookmarks and all that jazz, directly from my publisher here: https://www.inkshares.com/books/song-...

I'm also working on a few other projects in the same genre that I hope will see the light of day in 2019. With any luck I'll be able to announce what those are by the end of 2018.

I guess the short answer would be "Yes. Yes you can."(less)

Is there a 3rd book yet for A God in the Shed?

J.-F. Dubeau Yes! But also... it's currently only a first draft on my computer. I'm starting to edit/rewrite it once I'm done with this season of Achewillow. Then …moreYes! But also... it's currently only a first draft on my computer. I'm starting to edit/rewrite it once I'm done with this season of Achewillow. Then my full attention goes into it until I can hand it in to my publisher. The hope, I believe, is a Halloween 2025 release. Or something along those lines.

I feel bad about the delays, but only being able to be an author part time slows down the work. Especially if I want to maintain quality as much as is within my capabilities.
