When I finished writing RULES of CIVILITY in 2010, I had no artistic impulse to follow the lives of Katey or Tinker further – feeling that everything that I should have told my readers about their lives was already in the book. What I did find myself wondering was what happened to Eve? To answer that question, I wrote a series of six interlinked short stories called EVE IN HOLLYWOOD. I expect EVE to be included in a forthcoming collection of short stories.
