Hi Christie,
I'm so glad to hear that the environmental themes in my books resonate with you! My current project touches on the effects of sea level rise. I hope to have that book finished sometime this fall--the working title is LANDS END.
For the next book, I would absolutely consider a plotline involving fracking and its dangers.
Thanks for the question--it's great to hear from a like-minded reader :)
All best, Toni

“Never stop a man with a shovel...."
My aunt and uncle had a cabin in the California gold country, on a plot of land they hoped held tailings from an old gold mine. One night my aunt heard a commotion outside, and looked to see a man in the front yard digging a hole. Spooked, she woke my uncle and told him. Tired from the day's exploration, he mumbled “Never stop a man with a shovel.” So she went back to sleep. The next morning they found a hole nearly seven feet deep. Did the mysterious digger think there was buried gold? Was he planning on burying a body? They never found out. The story was told many times in my family, and I always wondered. I ended up writing a book set in the gold country, albeit without the mysterious digger. But he might appear in a future story. Hmmm...never stop a writer with a shovel mystery to be unearthed.
