Alex answered Ryan's question: Hey Alex, Out of curiosity, how many pages was Red Rabbit before the editor got to it? Thanks for the work! I'm not sure what you're asking, Ryan. Red Rabbit is roughly as long as it was before I revised it, but the epilogue was originally about twice as long. I whittled some characters out of it, characters I decided the reader didn't necessarily care to See Full Answer

Alex answered Elly's question: Hello! I recently read, and LOVED, Red Rabbit. Any chance there will be a sequel or more books like this?

It's called Rose of Jericho, and it will be coming out in March of next year. Please preorder or ask your library to reserve it for you. The more early support it gets, the more likely a third bo See Full Answer

Alex’s Quotes

“The philosopher Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king. Said Aristippus, 'If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.'

Said Diogenes, 'Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king".”
― Anthony de Mello
