My beta-readers were faster than anticipated in getting me their notes on the final Action Figures book, Zero Day, so now I’m back to work on that. The third draft is underway, and we’ll see how I feel about it when that’s done. Because this is such a huge book that wraps up a lot of longstanding story and character threads (and sets the stage for some new ones), I might do a fourth draft before sending it off to my editor. Sorry to the Strongarm & Lightfoot fans out there, the next book’s getting put aside for a little while again.
