Beneath this title page are 192 other pages containing the text of my next novel, here for the first time on actual paper. I wanted to record it in pristine condition, because I’m going to be marking it up no end over the next few weeks.

Because this is draft two, I’m freer to talk about the book. So I’ll entertain three questions about it. (The only question I won’t answer is one asking for a plot summary.)  Ask them in comments or on social media, and I’ll answer more or less truthfully.
