I hope to write quite a few more. I have pretty solid ideas for at least six more novels and more amorphous senses of where I could take Maggie beyond that.

“who have experienced trauma, we’re always waiting for something to go wrong. Different things can trigger it, but that feeling of waiting for the other shoe to drop, of not trusting it when things are good, that’s classic trauma response right there.”
Sarah Stewart Taylor, A Stolen Child

“He's wearing one of the slippery golf shirts he likes and he smells like Guinness and lemon oil.”
Sarah Stewart Taylor
