So it's not a book world, but I would love to live in the world of You've Got Mail. Late '90s, upper west side, New York in the fall. It makes me want to buy school supplies...

Thanks for reaching out and apologies for the very delayed response. I don't add bonus novellas and scenes to Goodreads since they are not available for sale. Some readers have added these to Goodreads, but I haven't been part of that decision.

Hello! I'm sorry I'm just now seeing this. I'm not on Goodreads much. Thank you for reading! I'm glad you liked the podcast interview. That was fun. I should do more of those! As for Nathan, he gets the redemption he deserves in "Outside Looking In," which I just released. I hope you enjoy reading it. Let me know what you think!

Hi Louise,
Thanks for your question. Ethan was not written as autistic, just shy and awkward :) Interesting thing is, for my upcoming Browerton book, one of my beta readers said the main character read as having Aspergers. I feel like this is a sign. The M/M genre could use an autistic protagonist!

Hi Brandon! I'm so happy you enjoyed OOAL! Thank you for the question. I'm currently working on book 3, and I'm aiming to have it out by the end of 2016. Members of my mailing list, whom I lovingly call the Outsiders, are always the first to hear about the latest updates on future books, including sneak peeks and reveals.

HECK. YES. I'm currently working on the next Browerton book. It will be a full-length romance. No release date pegged yet, but stay tuned for updates.

HI Brandon! Thanks for reaching out. I'm currently working on a collection of short stories (including a prequel for one familiar character) that I'm aiming to release this summer. I apologize for such a long wait. It sucks, and I'm totally embarrassed -- especially because I had said my next book was coming out in March. Long story short (and eventually, the long story will wind up on my blog), my original book #2 was much harder to write. I tried experimenting with dual POV, which I found more challenging than I expected. I had to put it aside for a while. And I put unnecessary pressure on myself to get it out fast, never a good thing to do when writing.
I hate that there'll be lag time between books 1 and 2, and I hate that I feel like I've let readers like you down. But there will be more Browerton University books. There are more stories to tell. That I promise you. Thank you for reading and caring about these characters as much as I do.
Sincerely,
AJ

Hi Jaime,
Thanks for reading! The next book is a companion novel and will focus on another character. I felt like Greg and Ethan's story ended in a good place in OUT IN THE OPEN, but they will cameo in Book 2, so you haven't seen the last of them!
Best,
A.J.
