I’m glad you liked my “Dear Readers” piece. As for that old “buried” novel, I think I’ll keep it underground for the time being. I still like it, but it feels like I’ve moved on from there, and I’m creating more exciting things now. Perhaps after a couple more novels I’ll put it out as a cheap e-book or something. You never know.

As for learning more, I’ve got a twitter account – @rgropp – and a personal webpage at troublebox.com. I’m pretty deep in publicity mode at the moment, so you’re mostly going to find links to reviews and interviews and things, but I’ll try to inject a little more variety. (I do have an interesting little deleted scene on my webpage – a dream-sequence I wish I’d been able to keep in Bad Glass, but, unfortunately, just couldn’t make fit).

I’d also like to thank everyone at Del Rey/Random House. They’re great people, and they’ve been an absolute dream to work with.

Hello. That’s wonderful that you were able to create your own world, without thinking of what will sell. I truly appreciate someone showing us, through writing, their worlds that they create. These new places are so fascinating. I am intrigued by your book and wish to learn more! Thank you for posting this wonderful entry. I am truly inspired.

Well, I’ll definately be looking out for Bad Glass, it sounds like my kind of thing.
If you ever ‘dig up’ the other oine from ‘out back’ I’d probably read that too because I’m intrigued now.
