Will there be a sequel to "The Revenge Of The Girl With The Great Personality"? I loved the book so much, but I just wanted there to be more.

(view spoiler)[Hi Anne! Thanks for your question as I'm glad to answer it here since I get this one a lot. Out of all of my books, Revenge of the Girl with the Great Personality is the one that has the most unresolved answers at the end. I don't have any plans to do a sequel, but you never know!
**SPOLER ALERT!!**
I knew from the very beginning that the book would end with Lexi choosing to remain single because she knows she has a lot of work to do with herself and her family before she could ever be in a relationship. (You have to love and be happy with yourself before you can truly share yourself with someone else.) But I do like to think that once she did figure that all out, maybe she could give Taylor another try.
I will say one thing that threw me was that Taylor wasn't supposed to be as awesome as he ended up being. Fans of Friday Night Lights might've noticed that the name Taylor Riggins is a mesh of the actor Taylor Kitsch and the character he plays on the show, Tim Riggins. It was supposed to be a name, but wouldn't you know that Taylor started to become this awesome guy. Sometimes characters really do take on a life of their own and even I was like, "GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER LEXI AND NOT SCREW THIS UP!" But alas, she needed to learn a few lessons.
The only book I've ever written where I imagined a sequel was my first novel, The Lonely Hearts Club. That sequel is coming out on January 27, 2015: We Can Work it Out! (hide spoiler)]

I loved Better Off Friends, are you going to write any more books that are similar?

Elizabeth Eulberg:
Hi Elizabeth! First of all I love your novels. I read Better off Friends and Prom and Prejudice years ago. I just finished Take a Bow and related the the theater/the arts aspects of the story. I noticed on your bio that you are from Wisconsin. Other than having some of your stories take place in that lovely state (also where I am from) how did the experience affect your stories?

Elizabeth Eulberg:
Hi Elizabeth! First, i wanted to say how much i love every book you wrote. I read Lonely Hearts Club for the first time when I was 12, now I am 18 and still go back at it and find comfort every time. Probably you already answered this but do you have any advice for non writers who want to write? (and become writers?) And also, do you have a current top 5 books you love or would re read over and over?
