will you ever write a sequel to Odd BIlly todd?

N.C. Reed First of all, I apologize for not having seen this sooner. Usually I get email notifications from 欧宝娱乐 but not this time. I'm sorry I didn't know鈥辞谤别First of all, I apologize for not having seen this sooner. Usually I get email notifications from 欧宝娱乐 but not this time. I'm sorry I didn't know this was here.

As to your question, I have not ruled it out per se, but the thing is that Odd Billy Todd was written to be a completed story, and as such I sort of wrote myself into a corner where a sequel is concerned. I have sketched several outlines for a sequel but all of them hit one block or another and end up in the dust bin because I can't seem to find a way to make it a good story. My rule for myself where this (or any writing project actually) is concerned is that it has to be a good story. It has to be worth it to the people reading or else it's no good at all. Thus far I haven't found the formula for producing that kind of sequel. I will say that should I ever come up with that formula then I would almost certainly use it and try to create a quality sequel to Billy's story.

I know this isn't a definitive answer but it's honestly the best I can give you. I never imagined Billy being so popular, but then if I had I might have done it differently and that, maybe, would not have been as good.

Thank you, and I hope sincerely that you enjoyed Odd Billy Todd.

N.C. Reed I hope you saw the second book "Brotherhood of Fire". I must apologize for not answering this when you asked. The notification that you had asked me t鈥辞谤别I hope you saw the second book "Brotherhood of Fire". I must apologize for not answering this when you asked. The notification that you had asked me this question literally arrived in my inbox today.

My blog and Facebook pages are also available to anyone with a comment or question about my work if you want to visit there. At the moment I am working on the third "Fire" novel, tentatively entitled "Trial by Fire", which I hope will be available before Christmas.

Thank you so much for letting me know you enjoyed Fire From the Sky, and again I apologize. I hope you enjoy the second and third installments as much.
