Here I am reading the very beginning of the next Anita Blake novel, Jason. It’s due to hit the shelves December 2, 2014. It will be the first original paperback since, Micah. Jason will also have the first chapters of the next original hardback Anita Blake novel. I have done my best for those of you who keep telling me you can’t stand to wait for more adventures from Anita and the gang.

After the reading, I took questions from the audience at DragonCon, where this was filmed, but I also did something new. I answered the top five questions from my FaceBook page. Thanks to everyone who participated. It went so well, that Media Minion Jess may solicit questions again in the future. I’m hoping with her on board we can do more fun things on line where you can participate more.

Speaking of your participation, I make an announcement in the videos. We’ll be making a more formal announcement soon. Let us know if you guys enjoy the videos. The more positive feedback we get, the more likely I am to do more videos for my YouTube channel.

IT GETS WORSE. It's treated as a punchline where if "no and stop" don't work, go with "I'll kill you!" and then Jason is like "no you mean 'I'll fucking kill you!'" and then everyone in the audience laughs because it's so very funny.

My headcanon is that the real Richard met a nice witch that he wanted to be part of the pack, sort of like Marianne for the Tennessee pack. They both like camping and ugly Christmas sweaters! She's interested in where science and magic intersect! They build a relationship on more than just "you're hot, I'm hot, let's be hot together." She finds a way to break the bonds of the triumvirate so Richard can finally leave JC and Anita. Richard gets engaged again and this time they have like a year and a half to plan a lovely outdoors wedding (to which the entire pack is invited, but not Anita).

What we're dealing with here is a homunculus that's probably made out of mud and hair and Anita can't tell the difference.

LKH is getting worse.

YES. That is my headcanon too. I shall believe that Ellen is the witch and she made the homunculus to rescue Richard and then had that dinner with Anita to throw her off the scent. And Ellen and Richard have more plans to take down JC and Anita, too.

Maybe Ellen and Richard are also working with Zane and Cherry and the rest of the old pard, plus Joseph and his wife, to help rescue other therians from the evil network that's going on in St Louis. And in doing so, are a more positive force than Micah's "Furry Coalition" that just serves to elevate him in the power hierarchy rather than doing any actual good.
