The Cycler Series
The Cyler Series: What would you do if you woke up one day as a member of the opposite sex? For Jill McTeague, this is no hypothetical question. It’s real life!

My next novel, the sequel to Cycler, will be published on August 25th, 2009. And it shall be called… (Re)Cycler No, I’m serious. It really is called that. Now, because it’s a very looooong time until August–as the snow outside my window makes chillingly clear–I’ve decided to post some of my short stories to tide you over. I’m nice like that. I’ll keep a link to them in the sidebar over there, on the right. Enjoy! 16 Responses to “Until The Next Cycler Comes”Leave a Reply |

yay! so soon!
and yay on the short stories! the only thing i don’t like about this whole situation is the sunglasses you’re wearing in the picture above. too seventies. i think you should go with a more audrey hepburn look.
Hmm. Audrey Hepburn. Interesting. I’ve always thought of myself as more of a Katherine than an Audrey. Will take into consideration. I can definitely do the big Tiffany’s up do with the blonde streak as I already have the blonde streak. And you? I’m thinking Rita Hayworth, Rosalind Russell. Someone strong and glamourous, no?
Hi there; random stranger popping up here to say that I just read Cycler and really enjoyed it. You handled the questions about sexuality and identity so gracefully and honestly, and it never felt like an “issue” book. I’m looking forward to the (re)sequel.
Cheers!
Welcome, Random Stranger. Glad you liked Cycler. I’m allergic to “issue” books as well and will always avoid writing them (and reading them).
looking forward to the book.!
I’m catching up on your blog entries, and I’m happy to see a publication date for the next one! Plus, August is a whole month closer than it was when you first posted this, and the glorious weather today makes me think summer can’t be that far off.
Is it too late to name the book “Re: Cycler”?
Believe it or not, (Re)Cycler was the joke name I came up with because I couldn’t think of anything else. Oddly, my editor loved it. By the by, I still have your book here in my inbox of things to read. I’m desperately behind. I’ve been doing a lot of research-type reading for my third novel and have had no time for pleasure reading. I miss pleasure reading! How goes it with your novel?
Things are going well–a lot of positive responses to the ms so far, so fingers crossed! I’m working on my third novel now, too (not part of the series) and am similarly drowning in research. Taking a break from it for some pleasure reading though.
OH MY GOSH!! i love you book! i can’t wait for the next one!!
Thanks, Alli. Glad you liked it. I hope you like the next one too. Cheers.
Hi,I just wanted to say that I am fourteen and I just read your book in three days and I must say it’s the best book I’ve ever read! It’s totally unpredictable and I got chills. The twists and turns made me keep reading. I can’t wait for the sequel! (:
Hi Jennifer. I’m so glad you liked it! You must be a fast reader. The sequel comes out in August. I hope you can wait until then. Cheers.
I really loved your book, it was really good, The day the sequel is released is the day I will be back at the book store, other than tonight I’m heading out to get another one since i just finished Cycler, my friends now want to read it because of the suspense and joy they saw from me reading it. It was really wonderful. Keep writing :]
Thanks, Amber. I’m so glad you liked it. The sequel’s out in August. Happy reading!
