It's not really that terribly different from my horror novels, except that there's not a lot of gore. The sequel will be out later this year. I have some other things to finish first. I imagine it'll appear around the same time the first book did.

Which is why everyone here should go buy it NOW (if they haven't already). Come on, I'll buy you all a beer if you do. Well, not really. That would get pretty expensive. But, you know, the beer-buying sentiment is there. Look, the next beer you drink, just pretend I bought that for you, okay?

It was fun working in both the Countess and the Ripper in a modern day setting. And maybe if the Countess reappears in the next one I'll drop in a Venom reference.

My original plan was to jump into a sequel right away because I had such fun writing the first one. But a lot of unpredictable things happened in my life since the beginning of the year. Distractions and other project demands. I still hope to get to it before the year's out. You know, I read a story by you years ago that was coupled with an Edward Lee story in some chapbook or other. I recall getting a real kick out of the story, but it remains the only thing I've read by you. Hope to have a chance to check out Genital Grinders soon.

I have a profound respect for anybody who can write anything if they have a job, because I had plenty of hold-ups putting GG together, and there wasn't even a massive overhaul to most of those stories. And even if the writers don't have a day job, there are plenty of personal distractions around the corner for everyone. I hope you're able to get the Kayla sequel out there in the near future, regardless. I have Soul Taker and Death Bringer on the to-read shelf, and I'm going to check out Highways to Hell very soon, so not like there isn't plenty to keep me busy in the meantime, haha. Oh, and I liked your story in In Laymon's Terms. We waited a lonnnng-ass time to see that one, didn't we? The story you read of mine was in Partners in Chyme. Ha, I'm glad it stuck with you over the years. A slightly revised version is in GG, along with lots of other morbid stuff. If you liked that, I'd say you'll probably enjoy the other extreme stories in it. Definitely let me know what you think if you give it a look sometime! I'm sure I'll be reporting back on Highways in the next couple weeks. Looking forward to it! --R.H.
