I made a very conscious effort to finish The Cypress House before

I made a very conscious effort to finish The Cypress House before So Cold the River launched, because I thought that would help build a buffer between my writing and any impact that came from either the success or the failure of that first book. – Michael Koryta

Other quotes by Michael Koryta

For So Cold the River, Im actually working on adapting the book with Scott Silver, who was just nominated for an Oscar for The Fighter, and who also wrote 8 Mile, which I think is a terrific screenplay. The chance to work with Scott is a tremendous pleasure and Im learning a lot. – Michael Koryta
