1. I adore your books. Just finished London Road and started Jamaica Lane as I can't stop reading your books :) 2. I looove your scotish accent, it's probably the coolest thing ever! :) You have(!) to keep on vlogging ;) Well, I've read before that you are a planner, so how long do you plan and how long do you actually write it down? Lena (From Germany. You are actually quite huge over here! ;) )

Hi Lena,
Thanks so much for your question!
It takes me a few days to get the chapter histories and plot summary down. It's usually only a few hours to write the first few chapter summaries, and once those are written I start writing the book. I usually write five chapter summaries, and then move to my laptop to write those up in the book, and then I write another five chapter summaries, write those up, and so on and so on. It takes me between two and three months to write a novel :)

Hi Samantha! I love your work and think you are absolutely fantastic; I often find it hard to finish a romance novel but your work is a true exception. My question for you is a little dated but I've been wondering if Beck from 'Into the Deep' will ever get his own story with Claudia? It's been a long time since I've read the book but I remember being so obsessed with their relationship and would love to read about it.

Hi Samantha, I just wanted to let you know that I loved loved LOVED your newest book Hero as much as I loved On Dublin Street. I've also read your other works, and you've never failed to make me feel warm and fuzzy inside :) Will you continue with the paranormal fiction, or are you focusing more on contemporary fiction now? Thank you so much! I'm so glad to have found your great romance novels.
