Will you be writing another book like Dangerous Illusions? I've read this 3 times already but am curious as to if you will write another like it?

I’ve always loved novels—as well as plays—where characters reappear in subsequent works, but where each work is its own complete story and very much its own tale. As we learn in the first novel, knowledge is dangerous, and in Book II we will experience the dramatic and unpredictable consequences that result from that knowledge. For now, what I can share with you about Book III is that it will be a classic and outrageous tale of revenge.(less)

In the writing of Dangerous Illusions, I felt compelled to capture New York, as it is now, in all of its remarkable complexities and contradictions and I wanted to reveal it in a way that would resonate with people who have lived here their entire lives, or for a chapter of their lives, as well as those who have not yet had a chance to experience New York.(less)

“Nothing is so necessary for a young man as the company of intelligent women.”
― Leo Tolstoy, War and Peace

“If people bring so much courage to this world the world has to kill them to break them, so of course it kills them. The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry.”
