i don't know if i will have another series or not. I think
its pretty clear that i am used to and interested in writing
about characters repeatedly but i don't know if I end up with
anything like Bosch again. I feel pretty lucky in that i
stumbled onto the right ingredients of character that
sustained my interest for so long. I like Mickey Haller all
right but I'm not sure I could write about him 10 or 12
times. probably not.
