I immensely enjoyed reading The Girl From The Well, and it has become one of my favorite books to read. I'm looking forward to reading more of your future stories. So my question is, what are you working on? And can you tell me anything about it?
Rin Chupeco
Thank you. :)
The sequel to The Girl from the Well (it feels more like a companion novel, really) has been greenlit by my editor and is currently awaiting edits, so expect that for August 2015!
I also have a few works in progress, so I'll mention two I'm prioritizing at the moment. If you're familiar with Hayao Miyazaki's work, the first WIP is a bit like an urban Princess Mononoke, complete with spells and monsters and things. The second is a YA fantasy with an ensemble cast. Both books are the first of a new series, and should be done by the end of this year!

Love love loved the girl from the well as well as the suffering. The attention to Japanese culture as well as Japanese horror (which I am a sucker for) made me so so happy. As an aspiring writer, I'm wondering if you have any advice on how you can create action, suspense, or romance without making it seem too cliché? I'm sorry for all of the questions but as a Filipina, I babble. Salamat!

I'm wanting to do the YA Scavenger Hunt, and have all of the red team's numbers but yours because you're website won't allow anyone to go on it without subscribing to a newsletter, it would be nice if someone could just go onto your website to take a look without being forced to subscribe. Just a helpful hint. Is there a way to get your number?

Hello! I wanted to tell you that I love The Bone Witch, and I've already got my hands on a copy of The Heart Forger (both of which are so amazingly beautiful I would die for them)! It was in stores at a B&N Feb. 24 (the earliest of my knowledge), and I was wondering if it was your intent that the book be released almost a month earlier than initially planned? (IM SO EXCITED TO START READING THF I CANT WAIT)
