things would we find?
Famous jail breaks and proof that I have thus far done all my holiday shopping online…
If you could write about any subject that is near and dear to your
heart, what would it be and why?
What was the first thing you did after the debut of the first book you wrote?
The day my first book came out, I was in a hotel in NYC finishing up the edits on my next book (which were due) before the launch event for Fracture. It felt right J
What is your biggest pet peeve?

Do you have any guilty pleasures?

What was your favorite book as a teen?

heart, what would it be and why?
Mostly I think I am writing about the subjects near and dear to me. I am a huge science nerd, and I’ve always been fascinated with the brain. Both my first and second books deal with an aspect of that.
Do you have a favorite song, album, or playlist to write to?
I’m probably in the minority, but I get distracted by any noise when I’m writing. That said, I listened to Mumford & Sons’ The Cave about a million times on repeat while thinking about my next book, Hysteria.What was the first thing you did after the debut of the first book you wrote?
