133157 Is Daphne's rock star father based on a real rock star? And if you could choose a rock star to be your dad, who would you choose?

We don't have an exact date yet. The best I can say at this time is Fall of 2015.

I have not seen the screenplay at this point. Any input an author gets to have in a movie is written into their contract. This is why you see authors more involved after the second or third movie. By then they can usually be as involved as they want to be.

Yes. =) That is something I wondered if most of you noticed. The answer to that will come in book five.

Thank you! That is a big compliment. The tiger books were heavily influenced by the story Beauty and the Beast.

Thank you. I don't think I'll ever put them in a book unless I compile all my bonus material at some point. Not sure anyone would ever pay to buy them since they're all online for free anyway.

And 2.) Is there really going to be a movie for these series or is that just a rumor?

There is going to be another book in the series called Tiger's Dream. The books have been optioned for film which means someone's interested but it doesn't guarantee a movie. Still it's the first step.

What sort of titles are you thinking about regarding your new Egyptian series?"


I've had a title in mind all along but the publisher has a different idea. We're going back and forth until we settle on something we both like.

Thank you. Yesubai only makes an appearance in Tiger's Promise. Kelsey will be in Tiger's Dream. As for advice the best thing I can tell you is to read, read, read and if writing is something you want to do. Never give up on that.

I can't wait to read Tiger's Promise :)
My question is: Are Yesubai and Kelsey similar in many ways? Do you think they would have been friends, if they were in the same time?"


Hard to say. I think they may be too different to get along. I think Yesubai would have been more drawn to Nilima.

That would be cool. Merch usually goes with the movie contract.
