Ten facts about THE APOCALYPSE SEVEN
10: Technically, there are eight of them.
9: So far, everyone’s favorite character hasn’t been one of the seven (or eight). It’s been a horse.
8: I initially built my seven characters—and their skillsets—off of D&D classes.
7: Speaking of D&D, MIT really does have a dungeon level.
6: Coywolves are a real thing too, but I made them larger for the book.
5: This will probably seem like a book written during a pandemic, considering I live in Cambridge and we just spent a year where imagining there was nobody else outside but you required almost no imagination. But I wrote it in 2019.
4: I did edit it in 2020, however. One evening I walked past a dormitory that’s featured in the book and realized I gave it too many floors, so I had to make a last minute change during the copy edits that probably aggravated the publisher.
3: It’s possible the most daring aspect of this book is, “What if there was an apocalypse and all the survivors basically got along okay with each other?”
2: I was ready to ride with this story never explaining what caused the end of the world and was halfway through the book before an answer occurred to me.
1: There’s a metaphoric component to the big reveal at the end that I may have made too subtle; I don’t think anybody’s picked up on it yet.
