Sophie Meyer asked Lisa Schroeder:

Are you going to write anymore poem books? (like The Day Before)

Lisa Schroeder Hi - thanks for the question!

The answer is: maybe. I do love writing in verse, but not every story works in that format. When a story idea comes to me, and I start writing it, I can't force it to work a certain way. My upcoming 2015 YA novel, ALL WE HAVE IS NOW, is not written in verse, for example, though there is a little poetry sprinkled throughout, similar to FALLING FOR YOU.

Here are the books published so far that are in verse:

I HEART YOU, YOU HAUNT ME
CHASING BROOKLYN
FAR FROM YOU
THE DAY BEFORE
THE BRIDGE FROM ME TO YOU (half verse, half poetry)

If a story idea comes to me that doesn't want to be told in any other way, then I will happily write it in verse! We'll just have to wait and see. :)

Thanks again!
Lisa
