July 2021,
I told myself that I don't do sequels...I really did...I also told myself not to start any more stories...I especially said I wouldn't do a sequel to this one since all the directions I could see it going where so very dark. But I received so many comments wondering what would happen if the Volturi knew about Darling, that it's been wandering through my brain for awhile.
What? A sequel based on everybody's least favorite character? Pretty much. It's a terrible idea...an even worse idea than writing a sequel. But somewhere on the lonely highways of Utah, images started bombarding my mind…and so I scribbled them down as quickly as I could in stolen moments across the flock of states we traveled through this month.
Yeah, let's just say it's gonna be another adventure.
If you are in for more of The Remnants, check out Shahrazád's Ghosts.
Thanks, as ever, for all of your wonderful commentary and ideas and literary analyses and readership. You really are the best!
Hope you enjoy!

September 2022
Well, this has somehow grown to include three alternate endings and two sequels.
Following Frankenstein tells the story of Buffy and Anthony post-The Remnants. Chronologically, it comes next, however it does not need to be read chronologically. This isn't really a trilogy as much as one story with two separate sequels following the stories of two of our remaining characters. Shahrazád's Ghosts is all about Darling... and the ripple-effect Edward's devolution has on the entire vampire world.
Read at your own risk.
As ever, it has been a delight to journey with you into this imaginary world. Thank you ever so much for reading, for sharing your thoughts, and honoring these stories with your attention.
