Lol! Thanks for the response. That's bad luck with M.J. :D (although now it kinda looks like mr Carey...) Hope you find a way to clue your fans into the right the direction with future pseudonyms, because you are a great (and very versatile!) writer.
Thanks! I think the narrative voice I used in Girl came from the two novels I co-wrote with my wife, Linda, and our daughter Louise. Collaboration tends to leave you in a very different place from where you started.
No plans for future pseudonyms, though. I think I've got enough names to last me a lifetime. :)
I wondered this when I first read GIRL, but figured it was because of the shift in tone. Glad to have confirmation with a side of humor :).
I'm very much looking forward to Fellside. I came into the Castor books cold (most other readers seemed to come from either Hellblazer or Jim Buther's Dresden Files, neither of which I had read at the time). I loved that series so much, and GIRL was wonderful in an entirely different way. Write under whatever name you need to, we'll read the books once we find them :).
