Hi, I read MLND and loved it. I was wondering if you have ever considered writing genres like sci-fi and fantasy?

Hi Lubelle,
Thanks for writing. I love sci-fi and fantasy, and read them both with great pleasure. I always marvel at the world-building, the excitement...It's just not something I've got plots in mind for at this time. That could change...I started out writing mysteries (after writing a lot of really bad poetry and plays in my teen years) and never expected to wind up in YA romantic contemporary. But here I am, and I still feel as though I have stories I want to tell in this particular genre. But, as I say, that could change at any time. I'm still hoping for that amazing book to knock me on my head in my sleep and practically write itself ; )
Warmly,
Huntley

Do you picture characters in the future once you've finished a book (outside of an epilogue)? Like in 10-20 years, where they live, their occupation, their family/kids...normal things. I do this after I finish a book and have thought out how I see Sam and Jase in the future. I wondered if you have your own vision for a character down the line that seems likely that given how he/she ends up in your book. Thanks!
