bring ending excited fans hanging imagination love people react readers seeing united
I'm excited to see Cassie's fans and how they react to the ending of 'Clockwork Princess!' I love hanging out with readers and seeing the energy readers bring to a room: seeing so many people united in imagination is going to be wonderful.
adult age books close continue learned love people readers teenage truly ya
I think more people are going to continue reading YA as well as reading other books because they have learned that they can find books there which they will truly love: a teenage protagonist is close enough to adult so readers of whichever age can sympathise and empathise with them.
love miss
I love 'Gossip Girl'! I still miss 'Veronica Mars,' though.
health mistaken notes pub taking
Taking notes at a pub in Salisbury, I was mistaken for a health inspector!
books boys girls given less people success treatment written
Books written by boys are given very different treatment to those written by girls: they're even given very different covers. People also expect, in this YA-booming world, girls to be less experimental than boys: girls are achieving a lot of success, but they're confined.
amazing books generally lives love teens time uncertain
Books for teens are amazing and compelling, I think, because they're generally set in a time in people's lives when they are uncertain about who they are and who they love and what the right thing is to do.
I can find the fun in most situations.
act dramatic hateful performed readings reads scene ton
Like any other person who reads a ton of books, I hate many, many books. Oh, how I hate them. I have performed dramatic readings of the books I hate. I have little hate summaries. I have hate impressions. I can act out, scene by hateful scene, some of these books. I can perform silent hate charades.
book books girl guy literary treated worthy
I'm a girl, so I've experienced dismissal because I was a girl or because I write about girls: my book with a guy protagonist is treated as more literary and worthy than my other books with girl protagonists.
country love music truly
I have a confession to make - I truly love country music.
letters liked love people shelves stories telling
I love seeing my book on shelves and getting letters from people who liked the book. I love telling stories and having other people tell stories to me.
enduring mysteries whether
I just have mysteries in all my books, I think, whether it's a boy investigating or a girl. I have an enduring fascination with mysteries of all kinds.
people rein tend
I tend to get over-excited and very, very loud. I rein myself in when people flinch and dogs start howling.
beings demons humans incredibly seen terribly
I just think demons are terribly interesting! In Sumerian times, demons weren't seen as evil at all, just as incredibly powerful and very different from us: beings made of fire, when humans were made of earth.
