Re: Lucky Girl (5:44pm August 23, 2011):

What a sweet story, Cate. If it were me, the pizza probably would have ended up in my lap. Yep, that's how I roll. No wonder no one takes me out in public.

May: Thank you!

Robin: I hope everyone likes it... (bites nails)

Jennifer: I agree. If done well, the characters can become your friends and you can't help but care for them.

Re: The Marked Son (6:48pm July 31, 2011):

Lisa: Thanks. I hope you enjoy reading it.

Alyson: That's a great way of looking at character.

Tracie: Thank you. And thanks for dropping by.

Fresh Fic Babe: LOL. Yeah. It's like freeze tag. Close the book, everybody freezes until you open it up again.

Re: The Marked Son (3:47pm July 31, 2011):

Sandra: YOu bet my characters will argue with me. I listen, take into account what they want and then weight my options and pick the one that has the most conflict.

Sheila: Thank you. I hope it's a great read!

Peggy: You're so sweet. Thank you. I try to take a familiar story and spin it in an original way.

Re: The Marked Son (3:00pm July 31, 2011):

Amy: I try really hard to write well. It ain't easy. I hope you enjoy the story.

Pam: The golden rule of writing is to make the reader fall in love with the hero/ine or want to be the hero/ine.

Colleen: Thanks for dropping by.

Lisa: I remember my sister going totally ape over General Hospital and really getting attached to the characters and what they were doing. I think it's very similar with our favorite book series. I know I enjoy talking about them to my friends.

Re: The Marked Son (2:55pm July 31, 2011):

Kathleen,

Thanks for stopping by. The Marked Son is considered an Upper YA, but I have no doubt most high school kids are reading stories with far more mature themes than this one. My policy is: if in doubt, read it first and then offer it to a child you think will enjoy the content.

Re: The Marked Son (2:53pm July 31, 2011):

I'm On!! Whew, talk about stressful. I'll be popping in and out all day. Thank you all for being so enthusiastic about The Marked Son. Dylan is a great guy and Kera is really cool and I can't wait for people to get to know them.

Re: The What If Guy (5:06pm July 16, 2011):

You made me giggle outright. I'm creepy too, Brooke. I think loads of writers are. That we can have normal friends is surprising, at least it surprises me when people actually like me. Good luck on your tour and have fun!
