Gabriella is in the recovery business and her adventures take her all over the world. Gabriella is tough, smart and she’s going to give Stephanie a real run for her money.
Gabriella is introduced in my current book, Fortune and Glory, and she will have her own book next summer.
This is the first new series I’ve written myself in a long time.
I’m very excited about my new spinoff, Gabriella Rose, which will debut next summer. The “mothership” will always be Stephanie Plum (27 books to date) but I’ve also written a number of other best-selling series such as the co-authored Fox and O’Hare that are really designed for film and television adaptation. I know the term “universe” has become very popular in Hollywood in recent years, but I’ve been building a universe for almost 30 years. I was a romance writer and had no experience in this genre when I wrote the first Stephanie Plum book, One for the Money. I did a great deal of research, spent time with cops and began creating a strong, flawed, funny and vulnerable female bounty hunter with a complicated love life named Stephanie Plum. I loved that movie and I left the theater fascinated with the idea of bounty hunters. Movies and television series have always been hugely important to me. Stephanie Plum was born after I saw Midnight Run with Robert De Niro and Charles Grodin. What can you tell us about the world you’re looking to build, and how are you thinking about and perhaps even writing differently with those mediums in mind? Dumb stubbornness and dogged determination also have something to do with my success.Īs part of your latest deal, you’re developing a spinoff series with planned TV and film extensions. It seems unbelievable today to have 25 No. I remember when I was a determined young writer with a box full of rejections. We are really on this journey together. I also feel that my books are about normal, relatable, compelling characters who can rise to the occasion when heroic acts are necessary. This is a consistent theme that I try to tell with a high level of entertainment. I wake up every day and write and I write for my readers. I am grateful for how my books have connected with such a large audience around the world. Over three decades and more than 40 books, I have developed a unique relationship with my readers. Let’s start simple: To what do you attribute that continued success? Here we are in 2020, and you’ve just released your 25th No. Striking Writers Blast Studios as Picketing Starts: "It's Really Dumb to Strengthen Our Resolve on Day One"
