Goodreads asked Lynda Engler:

What are you currently working on?

Lynda Engler So far we’ve only published the preview version of Into the Outside. Call it a short story if you want but it’s really just a tease. We haven’t even bothered to have printed copies made… only Kindle, Kobo, Nook, and Smashwords. But it’s ready to show to publishers and agents. Meanwhile I’ve been working on its sequel for about two years. Into the Yellow Zone continues the story of Isabella and Malcolm as they get captured by the military and taken to Mt. Weather, the underground complex that houses what’s left of the government, including the mutants that they have captured and are “using” … but no spoilers on that. The second novel also spends a lot more time on Luke’s side of the adventure. Luke is Isabella’s cousin-brother who sets off during the first novel to find her and warn her about what the government’s plans for the mutants.

I’ve got about ¾ of it done; once I’m nearer to completing it, my co-author Henry Dixon will start helping me get it polished. He’s never considered himself a writer, but he is absolutely fantastic at “polishing.” He is the one who keeps asking “why” and “what about…” and finding logically flaws. He also fixes my genetic problem with word order. Without Henry my writing wouldn’t be worth sharing.
