By now, some of you may be wondering what the heck the Post Mortem part of my website is all about. (Or maybe not. But for the sake of this blog post, and my fragile ego, I’m going to act as if I’ve been bombarded with questions about Post Mortem.)

Simply put, Post Mortem is a fake talk-radio show. And Death is the host.

Now, I have to be clear: this isn’t Neil Gaiman’s Death (although she is incredibly fabulous), and this isn’t Terry Pratchett’s Death (with or without all caps when he speaks). This is my Death. (Which, taken out of context, sounds incredibly weird and perhaps a little creepy.) Specifically, this is the character Death, who will appear in my upcoming novel HUNGER.

For more about Death and his role in HUNGER…well, you’ll have to be patient. (A year, folks. One year. We can do it!)

As for Post Mortem, here’s the deal: Death — cuddly, fun-loving guy that he is — has decided to interview the characters of other authors. The other authors’ characters, bless them, have happily agreed to come on over and answer some questions and talk about things…including what it’s like working with their authors.

Yeah, I’m pretty psyched about it too.

Some of the authors whose characters will be guests on Post Mortem? Heather Brewer. Rachel Caine. Mari Mancusi. Michelle Rowen.

So stay tuned.
