Robin Raymond asked Andrew Monroe:

Hi. I really loved Leaf & Pebble. I was wondering why and how you chose the title of the book. Also, when can we expect book two?

Andrew Monroe Hi Robin, thanks for the question and love!

First, the title. It refers to Nil and Volant. I liked the idea of small objects representing them, and wood and stone seemed like excellent analogies for them. The actual title came from my girlfriend after I'd finished the book though.

Also, a little trivia. I'd originally titled it Windows in the Sky, but I come from a marketing background, and there was already a book and album named such, and I didn't want to compete :)

The second book should be out SOON. I'm working through the final draft currently. I'm hoping to release by the holidays this year (2022), but my day job has been exceptionally demanding for a while now.
