How do you pronounce Andrzej? Will there be a sequel?

   Posted by: GG Vandagriff   in Future Plans, My books

These are questions people are asking as they read The Last Waltz.

To my great surprise, David looked it up and said Andrzej was pronounced On-zhay.  No r!  I’ve been saying it wrong for 33 years.  I don’t know if I can change it!

As far as a sequel goes, that’s up to my fans.  If there is sufficient outcry, I will embark upon one, but you must all realize that it will take at least a couple of years, plus a trip to Europe for background.  I would love to write a sequel, because I love that period, I studied it in detail, and I’m very attached to my characters.

Chocolates are ready to be sent to my volunteer bloggers!  Hope you’re not finding the read too onerous!

Just had one of those experiences where one of my characters in my latest mystery rises up and slaps me silly, “That’s NOT what I would do!!!”  Since this is a main character, it means a major rewrite.  And the dang book is due Apr. 15!  So back to the drawing board.

The Last Waltz should be in stores by this weekend.

You know, sometimes one wishes one’s characters were a little less well-developed. ;)

I hate it when my characters yell at me.

Thanks for the pronounciation guide! It’s very exotic-sounding.

I am so sorry you feel suspended in time! I am working on a new series, but perhaps I can start writing the sequel in between. Can’t promise when it will be released!
