My newest hardcover, 'Cage of Stars,' debuts a week from Today.
I could heave.
I could run away to the Bahamas and wear a funny nose and hide.
After seven novels, and several bestsellers, the thrill of publishing a new book is just as thrilling and just as terrifying.
It's a performing art, you see. If you don't like the book, it means that I've stumbled in front of you trying to do a double pirouette.
I think that the story is solid. I know that the characters are. But I'm about to take my show on the road -- going to Chicgao, Nw York, Connecticut, Cape Cod, Provo, Canada and other places -- and when I meet you, I'll want to hear your thought. Send them to this website if you don't get to see me.
And tell me that my "baby" is pretty.
