Not a question. I just wanted to say thank you. I lost my mom a few years ago…while finding your books around the same time. You have given me the ability to escape from reality and dive into a world of history (which I love so much…minored at University), absolute crazy shenanigans, and a family that is created around you. There are no words that will convey my appreciation for what you have created. Thank you! ?
Jodi Taylor
You are very welcome. So pleased to hear you enjoy my books. They're great fun to write and I'm so pleased people find them fun to read. When I started out I wanted to make St Mary's academics as far removed from the conventional view as possible, so I deliberately made them as bonkers as possible. I worried I'd overdone it slightly but according to an archaeologist friend of mine - I nailed it! Thank you for your question and lovely comments.

Dear Jodi, On multiple occasions you have ripped out my heart stomped on it, used it in a game of kick ball, set it on fire before somehow making everything okay again. Your books are brilliant I have enjoyed all I have read to date and look forward to future musings of history, donkeys and the batty souls who accompany them. Thank you. Do you have a favourite dinosaur? they seem to drop in often.

Jodi Taylor:
Hi Jodi. I just finished rereading all of the St Mary's and Time Police books - I decided to reread after reading C of C and starting some friends on the books. I love the whole series. The two questions I have for you at the moment are: (1) do you see the Time Police series as YA? (2) I've heard you say Jodi Taylor is a pen name. Can I ask what your real name is? Is that too personal?
