Hi All,

Had a very enjoyable podcast last week with Andrew Stamper exploring thriller movies, with a focus on Three Days of the Condor with Robert Redford. I’ll post a link when it becomes available.

Here are links to two recent podcasts you may enjoy, including Talking Codswallop with James Stafford from the UK.

Four podcasts are scheduled for next week and I’m always ready to do more. If any of you know a podcaster looking to discuss thriller writing or writing in general, please pass on my contact info. johnb@thrillerjohnb.net.

I’m thirteen thousand words into the sequel to Project Suicide. No title yet, so if anyone can think of something other than Project Suicide 2 I’d be interested in hearing it. 😊 All I can tell you right now is that Amy and Deacon are reunited, and they face a new threat from weaponized 606.

The book-club talk is coming up fast. If you’re in the Knoxville area September 8 and want to hear me speak about Project Suicide, just let me know. If you know of any other book clubs or stores in eastern Tennessee that might be amenable to a book signing or reading, likewise let me know.

Checkout Time went off to the publisher last week. I’m looking forward to hearing comments from Paul and Doug. I’ll keep you all apprised.

I’m up to sixteen five-star reviews (yeah), four of them verified purchasers. However, I’m still looking for many more. Even if you were gifted the book (especially if you were gifted a signed copy) I’m counting on your review. Once I get into the 30-40 range, Amazon will put me on the lists they send out to customers, which would be huge. Reviews are easy and don’t take much time. Just click on www.projectsuicidenovel.com and go to the bottom past the other reviews to the tab “Write a review.” Please give it a rating and a few lines. I’d consider it a big favor.

Thanks and stay tuned!
