In what order were the
Jack Swyteck novels published?
Each Swyteck novel is written as if it were a stand-alone
novel, and James does not believe that they need to be read in any particular
order. That said, many people do like to read a series from the beginning, and
if you’re one of those readers, here you go: The Pardon (1994); Beyond
Suspicion (2002); Last to Die (2003); Hear No Evil (2004);
Got The Look (2006); When Darkness Falls (2007); and Last Call (2008).

Does James actually read his e-mail?
Our policy is to cull
James’ email of rude commentary, business propositions, requests for referrals
to his agent or editor, and other inappropriate correspondence. All other e
mail is read and answered by James.

Can I get an autographed photo of James?
Currently, we just don’t
have the staff to handle these requests. If we’re in a position to offer
photos of James in the future, we’ll announce it on the site.

Can I send my books to James to have them inscribed?
James loves to personalize his books, but we are no longer able to accommodate these requests. However, James does coordinate with a local bookstore that will handle your request for an autographed copy. If this may interest you, please send an e-mail to james@jamesgrippando.com with the following subject line: "Attention D Fisher -- Signed Book Request." We will e-mail you with a response.

I have a terrific idea for a story! Would James like to write it, or would James like to pass the idea along to his agent or editor?
James keeps an idea file
in his bedroom closet. It is currently overflowing. Sadly, even if he were
eight years old and in the third grade, he would not live long enough to write
all of the stories he would like to write. And then, of course, there are the
legal issues. We are under strict orders from the lawyer to cull all e-mails
that pitch stories, notions, ideas, concepts, or anything of this sort. Please
do not send them, because we do not forward them to James. Since he does not
see them, he is of course unable to forward any submissions to his agent or
editor.

Would James like to speak at our event?
James makes most of his
appearances in connection with the release of a new book. These events are
scheduled by the publicity department at HarperCollins, and they have taken him
to places as far away from home as Australia. His appearances outside of this "touring period" are limited, since this is his writing time. He may do local appearances in the Miami area when time permits. Very occasionally, he will consider appearances outside the Miami area, but only if air travel and hotel expenses are covered. If you e-mail your request to james@jamesgrippando.com,
please use the following subject line: "Attention D Fisher -- Request for
Appearance."
