I hate to admit this but i like Nick Lawner AKA Kool-Aid
Will there be a sequel?
more then likely. keeping my lips sealed, on this one.
What are your future plans after Suicide Games?
Not wanting to give to much away, but suicide games is apart of a larger universe at play. Something like the marvel movie universe, where each character gets their own movie (in this case a book series) then comes together to stop the main bad guy.
