Hart Johnson--Confessions of a Watery Tart

Hi everybody!

Today, on the Finger Lickin’ Dead blog tour, I’m posting at my friend Hart Johnson’s Confessions of a Watery Tart with my thoughts on sequels—including backstory (if you need to), reintroducing recurring characters (so as not to bore your returning readers and not to confuse your new ones), and how to keep things interesting in general. Hope you’ll come by and say hi. :)

My random drawing will be tonight for the signed copy of Finger Lickin’ Dead. You can enter until midnight ET tonight….
