Further adventures of the World’s Worst Interview
And in this installment, mega-nominated mystery writer and all around good sport Julia Spencer-Fleming answer’s Mr. Gischler’s questions, like this one:
What are you working on now? What surprises can we expect from Julia Spencer-Fleming?
Well, I finally finished the next book in my series. I’m now the Official poster Child of Bad, Procrastinating Authors–I blew through at least five deadlines before delivering the ms to my long-suffering editor. The book, To Darkness and To Death, will be coming out in June. I’m trying to figure out a way to convince St. Martin’s that an unexpected wave of sales indicates they should tour me in the south of France. If that doesn’t work, expect to see me instead in exotic locales like Oklahoma and Arkansas.
In the meantime, I plan to stay busy with the as-yet-untitled fifth book in the Clare Fergusson series and a couple of short stories I’ve been asked to contribute to anthologies. I may be editing a collection of Episcopalian-themed mystery stories–we’re working the details out.
Victor, I see this as perfect for you. I want you to write me something about a naughty vicar.
And I even have a title for him: “Naughty Vicars and the Parishioners Who Love Them.”
