Ellie Terry The first title I gave the manuscript was I am Calliope June.
The second title I gave the manuscript was Pocket Full of Poppies.
I think Forget Me Not was a great change from the Macmillan marketing team and wouldn't want to change it.
Ellie Terry Hi Jasmine. I am 39 years old and very much alive!
Ellie Terry Hi Naomi,
Thank you for the note. I wish I could tell you when my next book will be published, but I can't . . . I can tell you that I am busy working on two new manuscripts right now and will be sure to spread the news far and wide when I have any news/dates!

(but it seems shorter, since a lot of the story is told in free verse poetry form)
Ellie Terry Hello there! It depends on who you ask. The name Calliope is of Greek origin and I believe they pronounce it as K-ah-lee-OH-pee. But many English-speaking name gurus will insist it is pronounced as K-uh-LYE-uh-pee. In an early draft of the novel, I attempted to explain the pronunciation issues associated with the name, but ended up editing that page out due to pacing.
