N Germonpré asked Katie McGarry:

I've read all your books multiple times and already pre-ordered Echoes Between Us. I really can't wait to read it! I was wondering how long it takes (give or take) to write a book? I was also wondering when the people not from America (Belgium) will be able to participate in the special preorder giveaway? I really want one of those limited edition notebooks <3

Katie McGarry Hi N Germonpré,

Thank you for contacting me and for reading my books!

I'm so happy to hear you enjoy my books and thank you for preordering Echoes Between Us!

As for how long it takes to write a book, it takes me on average a year. There are some authors who take longer and some who take a shorter amount of time. As I often tell new writers, there is no right or wrong amount of time it takes to write a book. :-)

As for the preorder giveaway, that is a giveaway that is being done my publisher Tor Teen. Because of that, they are the ones who set up the rules, not me. I do try to do as many international giveaways as I can on my social media sites so stay tuned to those!

Thank you,

Katie
