Are your books meant to be read in order or can you read them out of order? I currently own book 3 of the John Dies at the End series but don't know if I should start with it or wait until I have all the books.

They're very contained stories and any one can be enjoyed on its own, if you intend to read all three then it probably would be better to read them in order but you don't have to. It's not one long running saga like Game of Thrones. But of course you reading book 3 first you will naturally spoil certain things for yourself if you go back to a previous one ("Hmmm, this character seems to be in mortal danger but I know for a fact they're still alive in Book 3, so ... ")

I am a huge fan of your. Thanks for friending me, I know it's meaningless in the long run, but cool of you nonetheless. Do you ever do book signings? I have all your books including the Permuted Press of John Dies. It would be cool to meet you and say thanks in person.

Have you ever felt discouraged writing the first draft? I'm writing a novel right now, and despite how much I enjoy explaining the plot and characters, when I actually read over it, it feels like I'm doing it wrong. I want to just finish it so I can go back and fix everything, but I keep getting stuck in this weird part where I love it and hate it at the same time and then never actually finish it...
