It is a great privilege to be allowed to write in his universe. I don’t think there is much more I can say about that.
Oh and the characters — I’m still not sure where ‘Paranoid needle fucker’ came from. I think it was Janna reaching out with her unhappiness.
I am really proud of ‘Well doesn’t that make us special fucking snowflakes?’ again, not sure where it came from. It just flowed out onto the keyboard and fit well.
Considering there were at least two people who publicly stated ‘Where did Janna come from?’ I introduced Shen earlier. He’s not much in this book, but he’s there and has a larger role to play.
I think we have found our groove, but the next Boris book is probably ten weeks away.
I can hear the mob forming… yup they just lit the torches… Oh, come on, are the tar and feathers really necessary?
This is a combination of factors. One of them is that I really need to work on my solo series. No like REALLY. I need to get book two out. It’s been 3 months.
The other main factor is — Mike’s plot. He has things he wants to happen in his books before the plot of mine takes place. So… Yeah. Sorry.
But Please keep leaving reviews (Yes, your comments were helpful Tesh. A bit out of the blue… well yeah, you want to talk more you have my Facebook :) ) The Kind ones encourage. The critical ones help me improve.
Now for those social media links.

Author’s Notes – Michael Anderle
August 12, 2016
Well, crackers. I don’t know what Paul is going to write as I sit here and write this one. So, I can’t be snarky and it kinda sucks. I liked the opportunity to know what Paul wrote first last time.
D@mn.
For those that read the author notes in The Kurtherian Gambit series know that I’m new to this author gig. Like, I’m not even out of my Freshman year, yet. So, there is a LOT I haven’t seen, witnessed or, sometimes, have a clue about. I just keep taking this authoring gig one day at a time and thank my lucky stars you, the fans, like Bethany Anne and her people.
I try to remember that even ‘bad’ guys (or females) have reasons they are doing something, usually because we (as parents) screwed something up. Well, at least that is how it feels sometimes. Mind you, occasionally the parents deserve it, sometimes not. Either way, once they are outside of the family walls, it is all on them to stand up and be accountable for their actions.
So Paul had intended to write a different book first before tackling this one. The problem, as he told me, was this story was in his head so much, he couldn’t focus on his other book. So, he needed to get this story out, and he did.
Really, really quickly. I’m writing this Author note about 29 days from the last author note on July 14th.
With the awesome fan base for The Kurtherian Gambit, and a strong spin-off character in Boris, the first book, Evacuation, STAYED #1 in its category for a looooong time. In fact, due to the first book, I had two (2) #1 books in their genre at one time (TKG 11 — Sued for Peace and The Boris Chronicles, Evacuation). Evacuation is still #3 in the Best Sellers in Action & Adventure Short Stories right next to #2 by George R. R. Martin himself.
Pretty cool.
Now, we are releasing Retaliation and we intend (for at least a few days) to knock ol’ George off his throne.
Maybe… I hope. ;-)
If we do, it will be a really cool feeling, I have to say.
Forever grateful for my family, my readers and fans, our beta-readers and our editor in all things.
