![]() Q: Will you share copies with me if I’m willing to pay for them?Ī: No, I’m sorry. Those were the major motivators behind my decision to remove my work from the internet. The idea of those first drafts being held up to and judged against my professionally published books as if they’re comparable is something I find particularly unsettling.

I’m sorry to say that they’re no longer available to read. ![]() What happened to them?Ī: When I transitioned into professional publishing, all of those early novels - and their associated short stories - were permanently removed from the internet.
