More on Mouse

"Michael Tolliver Lives" will not be book 7 in the "Tales" series, but rather a stand-alone story. As author Armistead Maupin told the Advocate recently:

It's not a continuation of "Tales of the City," but it is told from the standpoint of Michael Tolliver today. He's 55 years old. A surviving HIV-positive man.

I originally said that I would not have any of the other characters from "Tales" in the new book, but some of them have crept in. The book is a smaller, more personal novel than I've written in the past. I've tried to focus on the dailiness of life--which I think is very interesting.

Whatever the case, I am quite interested to find out what Michael Mouse is up to these days.
