Hey Gail! Just wondering about something. With was more fun for you to write about: The Birds of Prey or Secret Six?

Hmmm.


I loved writing both. I might say that Birds of Prey was more rewarding in some ways, because it was my first long-term ongoing and NO ONE thought it could be a hit book. It was scheduled for cancellation when I took it over and the tpbs STILL sell incredibly well years later.


No one thought a girl team book could maintain an audience. They had SO MUCH advice for ways to make it palatable to guys…we did none of that and made it a hit.  Female team, female writer, and we had five straight years of high sales, reader acclaim and critical success.


I am really, really proud of that.



Secret Six was just fun…the ferocity of Six readers is still extremely humbling.



Dang, I miss them both.
