Have I read punk noir before? No. But your interview on House of Chapters earlier in the week hooked me, and I placed an order the same day. Looking forward to checking it out, and congrats!

Sean, I'm three chapters in and having so much fun I don't want it to end. So I'm taking my time. Have to tell you I'm in love with Elwood.

Re: it's not perfect. I keep reminding myself that Henry James, in his later years, went back to his novels and revised them. So we're never really done.

Congratulations--and Bravo to everyone involved. I look forward to your next novel.

Thank you, Angela! That’s great to hear! Elwood loves you right back. :)
