HOW COOL IS THIS!?

I'm very interested in his co-authoring experience, too. How did they decide to co-author books? What is their writing process like?

And what is his solo-authoring writing process like? Does he outline and know his story/reveals/twists early on, or is he a pantser?

What is his #1 piece of writing and/or industry advice for authors earlier along in their careers?

I am so excited for this interview and as usual, I have TOO MANY QUESTIONS.

1. I'd love to hear what Bruce thinks suspense novels often get wrong in terms of procedure--examples, time it really takes to get forensics results for cases (it seems like books and TV are wildly inaccurate about this) or how detectives approach people for interviews or when people get charged. Whatever pushes his buttons / whatever he wishes the rest of us would understand better!

2. I also want to hear about co-authoring. Do he and his co-writer each take different POVs or merge their voices in every section/chapter? Do they work from an outline?
