What do you think?
Here's the cover for my next book set in the weird little town of NEIGHBORLEE, OHIO.
LIVING PROOF
This is the next story told through the eyes of Lanie Zephyr, wheelchair-bound comedian, sports reporter, and broken semi-pseudo-superhero, one of the guardians of the weird and wonderful things kept contained within the boundaries of Neighborlee. And yes, she plays in a wheelchair basketball league.
The title comes from the title of one of Lanie's comedy CDs: "Living Proof that the Good Times Roll."
And for those of you who know my brother -- wheelchair-bound former comedian -- it's also the title of one of his comedy collections. The other one was, "It's all Downhill From Here." And showed a sketch of him holding onto his wheelchair for dear life, his eyes big with terror.
LIVING PROOF will be coming out this fall from Uncial Press, and starts up 6 years after the events at the end of the current Neighborlee/Lanie Zephyr novel, DORM RATS.
Future titles in the Lanie Zephyr stories will be along the same lines: Night of the Living Proof, Return of the Living Proof, the Living Proof Gets the Blues, Bride/Husband of the Living Proof, Son/Daughter of the Living Proof ... get the idea?
