In his latest newsletter, Escape Hatch • 72 Joe Hill gives an update on what he’s working on at the moment.

I’m closing in on the latest rewrite of this screenplay (adapted from a still-unpublished-but-it’ll-be-out-someday novella of mine).

He's also updating us on his next book Hunger:

I’m also elbow deep in what will probably be the last major rewrite of Hunger (although there will inevitably be at least two more lighter revisions).

HarperCollins announced Hunger, complete with a pretty good sketch of what the thing is about. There’s also a release date, but I wouldn’t Sharpie that on your calendar just yet, I kinda got a feeling it’s gonna get bumped to early 2027. (Hey! I said I’d finish a book a year, I didn’t promise anything about publication dates, which is somewhat out of my control).

The release date for Hunger on HarperCollins website has now been changed to March 2, 2027.
