Ava asked Jennifer A. Nielsen:

Hi my name is Ava and I am a huge fan of the Ascendance series. It gave me a world to escape to when I did not like the world I was in. It has inspired me to write poetry and enter some contests. I wanted to ask you, what was your inspiration for the Ascendance series and why did you want to write it? Is there a possibility of a movie in the near future? Thanks!

Jennifer A. Nielsen Hi Ava;

I'm so glad you've enjoyed the Ascendance series!

When my daughter was young, she loved these Barbie DVD’s. I hated them – they made my brain melt. But IF she had to watch one, the one I hated the least was Princess and the Pauper, the story of a princess and a poor girl who have to switch places to help each other. I think somewhere in my imagination, the very beginning of The False Prince, this story of murder, danger, and deceit, might’ve begun with a Barbie movie!

And a movie is always a possibility. Keep your fingers crossed!
