Okay, I am tired of keeping this to myself, so here goes:
A mere 26 years after The Fortunate Fall*, I am working seriously on another novel. The book is called What We Are Seeking and I really don't know what to say about it, so I will just post the opening paragraphs.
* Published under my deadname, Raphael Carter
Another novel called Courting Hellfire is plucking at my sleeve insisting that I need to write it, and recently informed me that it wants to be a diptych when it grows up, but it's probably too early to say anything at all about that one.
It's strange to have too many ideas after such a long period of creative nullity. Changing the hormone levels in my brain has been good for me. Here's hoping it stays legal.
For those here wondering if The Fortunate Fall will be republished, the answer is YES! Tor Books, mid-2024.
I am delighted to announce that The Fortunate Fall will be reissued as a Tor Essential trade paperback in mid-2024. (Exact release date to be determined.) The book will be published under my new name but the old one will be on the cover in smaller type, to help people reconnect with the book. This is the best way for the book to come back into print I could have hoped for and I am over the moon. #CamWriting
