Are you asking if Ken will write an adventure-themed novel? Ken was never really a designer at Sierra – he was a programmer, a consultant to the creative teams, etc., but not one who would write that kind of story – though as you probably read, Ken recently posted that he wrote a book that is just now published about his summer boating adventures.
However, over the summer Ken also did mention that Roberta was thinking of writing a novel – so we can only hope that this is happening and that it will be somehow similar to the storytelling we’ve come to know and love through the many Sierra games that Roberta designed.

Why not write an adventure instead ?All the Best

Roberta is the writer in the family. I did write a book ( http://www.lulu.com/content/90630 ), but only in my wildest dreams is it likely to surpass selling 500 copies. I’ve got another book I’m starting that will be fiction, but I’ve already got doubts that it will sell as well as this last one. I’m enjoying being able to be creative, but to really succeed you need talent, and I need work in that department.
Roberta on the other hand is quite talented, and will write something worth everyone reading. She threatened my life if I say anything about it — so, I’ll stop there. Don’t rush to your bookstore. She is wrapping up research, and should start writing post Christmas — but, it could easily be a couple of years before anything shows up at a bookstore.
