I'm only halfway through The Library at Mount Char but I'm captivated. I know you've been asked about a sequel, but aside from that, are you planning on releasing anything else in the near future? Your imagination (internal demons?!) is brilliant.
Scott Hawkins
YES!
Thanks for asking. I had kind of a false start with what I originally intended as the follow-up to Mount Char. It was an unrelated story, and it just sort of fizzled. That cost me about a year, and I ended up scrapping the whole thing.
Anyway, since then (September 2016-ish) I've been working on an unrelated followup. I have a complete first draft which I am polishing.
It's not related to Mount Char. If you can picture Looney Tunes doing a noir-ish detective story starring a hard-boiled version of Scooby Doo investigating the Exorcist, that's kind of the ballpark I'm shooting for. Hopefully it'll be ready to start showing around in a couple of months.

I just got your book and I cannot wait to give it a go! Finishing up The Shining then on to Mount Char! I have recently been getting back into reading as sort of a stress relief fix. I feel like taking a break from reality and diving deep into the minds of you crazy authors helps! Thank you for helping me escape the clutches of stress and anxiety by creating a world where I can turn that all off! how many dogs?
