Me too!\u00a0 I&#8217;ve been planning out my crime fiction series, which I&#8217;m now collectively calling <em>The Uranium Lily Casefiles<\/em>. Uranium Lily is a code-word for something that will be revealed later in the series. Originally, the book called <em>The Fall<\/em> was going to be a stand-alone book by itself. But, as is usually the case, I had another thought (<em>The Ambassador<\/em>), and another thought (<em>The Prey<\/em>), and then at least a half-dozen other thoughts after that in quick succession.<\/p>\n<p>As it turns out,\u00a0<em>The Fall<\/em> will be the beginning to a series of books featuring these characters. These books are largely episodic. You can more or less read them in whatever order you want and it shouldn&#8217;t affect things too much. There is a chronological order to them, but the are all written as self-contained stories.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m also toying around with the idea of creating a Victorian-Period Crime Fiction book (or maybe a series). I have a loose idea rolling around in my head. If this sounds like something that you might want to read, let me know.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-136 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-medium'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"188\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/claybornglobal.com\/author\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2017\/12\/Cover-Final-wsubtitle-medium-188x300.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-281\" srcset=\"https:\/\/claybornglobal.com\/author\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2017\/12\/Cover-Final-wsubtitle-medium-188x300.png 188w, https:\/\/claybornglobal.com\/author\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2017\/12\/Cover-Final-wsubtitle-medium.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 188px) 100vw, 188px\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-281'>\n\t\t\t\tFeb 16, 2018\n \n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So you like a little mystery in your stories?
