Hexed: The Sisters of Witchdown will this become a series of novels?

That is difficult to answer at the moment. Though I would love to tell more stories about Lucifer "the early years," it's going to depend on whether or not Pyr and BOOM! feel it would be worthwhile to do more. Neither has approached me about another YA novel in the Hexed universe yet. Does that mean there won't be any more? I honestly can't say. I hope to have a better idea later this fall.

But the good news is that, if you enjoy Lucifer as a character and the world she inhabits, her story does continue in the comic series. If you're not already reading that, I highly recommend it. The graphic series certainly isn't YA (it's 15 and up due to violence), but it tells the complete story. The series will be collected into three trade paperbacks, the first being available later this summer.

Sorry I couldn't give you a better answer. But thanks so much for your question!(less)

I'll either go for a walk, play guitar, or, when I'm desperate, call on fellow writers for help. I find the walk works best accept for when I'm really stuck. Thankfully, I have very talented friends who are willing to give me a push in the right direction. (less)

God of Dolls -- A Short Story

GOD OF DOLLS

Michael Alan Nelson

Bobby was five the first time he brought a doll to life. He was in his sister's room with an orange crayon, scrawling in a legally dubious coloring book his mother had found at a dollar store. Toys littered the room: Legos, books, dolls of every kind, but it was his sister’s coloring books that interested Bobby the most. Especially since his sister colored all the
