"A grand and wonderful literary project"
A spectacular novel called FOURTEEN DAYS will be published on February 6. This novel is a collaboration among 36 prominent, bestselling authors, including Diana Gabaldon, John Grisham, Margaret Atwood, Dave Eggers, Celeste Ng, Scott Turow, R.L. Stine, Sylvia Day, Erica Jong, Mary Pope Osborne, Tommy Orange and many more. Never has such dazzling literary talent been gathered between the covers of a book!
Set in a Lower East Side tenement in Manhattan, during the early days of the COVID-19 lockdowns, this is an irresistibly propulsive collaborative novel with an unusual twist: each character in this diverse, eccentric cast of neighbors has been secretly written by a different, major literary voice.
One week into the shutdown, the tenants have begun to gather on the rooftop and tell stories. With each passing night, more and more neighbors come together. Gradually the tenants—some of whom had barely spoken to each other before—become real neighbors. A dazzling, heartwarming, and ultimately surprising narrative, FOURTEEN DAYS reveals how beneath the horrible loss and suffering, some communities managed to become stronger.
All income from FOURTEEN DAYS will benefit the Authors Guild, America's oldest and largest professional association of authors, to support free expression, literacy, and education.
With best wishes,
Doug Preston

Any number of painters working, successively over a single canvas.
Looks super interesting.
I'll sure be talking about it next month.
