I’m working on Elemental Assassin 5 right now, and I realized something kind of cool about it the other day.
When I get done with this book, I will have written more than 500,000 words about Gin Blanco. Yep, that’s right — half a million words about one character. That’s a whole lot of words, not to mention all the typing!
Of course, I’d love to write more books about Gin beyond these five, but that’s going to be up to the sales gods and readers. Still, I think half a million words is a pretty cool accomplishment. I’m totally patting myself on the back right now — and keeping my fingers crossed that the words and Gin’s stories will keep on coming!


Half a million words — that sounds like a cause for celebration.
I think the appropriate drink here would be a gin and tonic.
Of course. With a twist of lime.
