Anna Paixão asked Colleen Hoover:

Hi! In dual POV books, how do you pick which parts get to be told by who? Is it just a feeling? Kind of random but just wondering lol

Colleen Hoover Yeah, I guess whatever moves the story along the best. There have been times I've started a book in dual POV and then went back and changed it if I feel the story doesn't benefit from dual POV. There has to be a need to see a different side to the story for me to write dual POV.
My upcoming novel, Reminders of Him, is dual POV and I wrote it this way because I wanted the reader to see both sides of the situation. And who is telling which chapter is really just left up to what part of the story needs to be told in that chapter. Hope that helps!

Hi Ms. Hoover, I read "Layla" first and just finished "Verity," loving them both. Are any of your other books like either of those? Most of the ones I see are under the ROMANCE category. Love your work!! Thank you so much for the amazing and wild rides in those books!

Hi! How are you? I love your work a lot! I was wondering if you actually preferred to write your books on a device like(laptops) or do you prefer hand writing them?

~Alecia~ asked Colleen Hoover:

What was your inspiration to write your very first book ever? You are one of my all time favorite authors and I’m just curious as to what your “inspiration” was, when it started and how old were you when you started writing?
