I just finished listening to "Heaven's River." Another excellent addition to the Bobiverse series. I was wondering if the Bobiverse books had been optioned for movies or TV. If so, do you foresee any copyright or trademark issues given that many Bobiverse characters are named after established characters in other franchises?
Dennis E. Taylor
Not from names, per se. The Simpsons, for instance, didn't invent "Homer" as a name. But using the images without permission would be death.

I am currently reading the We Are Bob series at the moment, I am on book 2, I am thinking about buying Outland next but noticed that you have only written one of that series so far, when is the next book in that series to be published or have you stopped writing the Outland series now ?

The Bob books are true nerdvana. I feel like most of the pop culture references fit best into a certain age group. I would guess 40 - 60 ish. The fact that you have some experience with COBAL suggests that you fit into that group. The open nature of the Bobaverse seems to lend itself well to a Netflix series. My question is if something like that happen (oh please) how directly involved would you be in the writing?
