Jean, thanks! :)

Re: The Girl Who Saved Ghosts (11:59pm October 24, 2017):

Bonnie, great reasons! :) I like seeing what happens next after I've emotionally
invested in the characters.

Re: The Girl Who Saved Ghosts (11:13am October 24, 2017):

Anna, I love going deeper into the characters. The wait is tough. I try to give my
fans a one page synopsis of the previous book before the new one releases, just
to refresh their memories.

Re: The Girl Who Saved Ghosts (11:12am October 24, 2017):

Linda, I love sequels. But you're right I really don't like when it feels like a reboot of
Book 1. Thanks for stopping by!

Re: The Girl Who Saved Ghosts (11:40pm October 22, 2017):

Glenda, you're right--characters are what keep readers coming back!

Re: The Girl Who Saved Ghosts (11:40pm October 22, 2017):

Jenny, that's an important point about series. Each book has to be able to stand on
its own as a completed story. When I'm writing, I always feel like my characters
have so much more to reveal in the next book!

Re: The Girl Who Saved Ghosts (11:38pm October 22, 2017):

Debby, that's a fabulous reason! I agree--it's so nice to come back to a character.

Re: The Girl Who Saved Ghosts (11:37pm October 22, 2017):

Sarah, those are my favorite things too! Nice to meet you! :)

Re: The Girl Who Saved Ghosts (6:35pm October 21, 2017):

G., I am a huge fan of sequels. I have only written series so far. I am not sure I
could let my characters go after one book. Possibly a future challenge?

Re: The Girl Who Saved Ghosts (6:34pm October 21, 2017):

Susan, I agree. Each book has to answer the main question raised in that book, but
also raise new questions that are answered in the next book.

Re: The Girl Who Saved Ghosts (11:52pm October 19, 2017):

Thanks, Lyndsey. Especially in a romance, I think it's hard to keep that kind of
tension and excitement going when a couple is together.

Re: The Girl Who Saved Ghosts (11:50pm October 19, 2017):

Tanya, thanks--I feel the same way. I don't like reboots. Of course there are
certain conventions to each genre but I want to be surprised and not know what's
coming next too! Thank you so much!
