Well, I guess the muse wasn’t too tired today, after all. Thirteen pages of the Jason book. It’s officially a novel not a novellite because I have now hit over two hundred pages and we are nowhere near done. On one hand, cool; on the other hand, damn. Done in two hundred pages or under was pretty cool with MICAH. I guess we’ll have to wait for another book for another novellite.
This afternoon Jon and I are working on edits on the original comic script for the second half of ‘THE FIRST DEATH’, the prequel to GUILTY PLEASURES. Our artist needs to see if the edits will effect his end of the job.
The hardback collection of the first six comics of GUILTY PLEASURES will hit stores on July 5th. For those who don’t already know there is a bonus story that is brand new Anita never before published anywhere. More of Brett Booths great artwork to look at.
Then the first comic of ‘THE FIRST DEATH’ will hit stores on July 11th. This comic is a prequel to the book or comic of GUILTY PLEASURES. But more than that this is a story where Anita truly is the rookie. Back in the day when Anita was still not sure how to do the police work, and Manny Rodriguez was a better vampire hunter than she was. This truly is Anita before the hard edges got carved into her flesh. You get to see where most of those scars came from. It’s Anita’s first serial killer case. One of the first times Edward shows up for Anita. The first time Anita meets Jean-Claude, or goes inside his club, Guilty Pleasures.
These are the firsts you, the fans, have been asking for. I couldn’t figure out how to do them in a book. But the comic has opened up a wealth of possibilities to explore earlier things. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, they’re wrong, it’s worth about a million. At least, that’s what I’ve found. So cool.
