(view spoiler)[Does it ever bother you that the way things have turned out so far in Keeper that Sophie and her friends don't have the solid backing of their peers at school when they leave for Black Swan, unlike in Harry Potter or Percy Jackson? This is one thing that worries me when I read the books. Thanks!
P.S. Can't wait for Neverseen; don't want to bother asking you questions about it. :) (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[Not sure what you mean by "bother" since...nothing in the books ever bothers me. :)
But I'm also not worried that they don't have the support of their peers since I don't see why they would need to have it--all they need is the support of the people that matter to them, like each other, and their families and the Black Swan themselves. Plus, even in the series you mentioned, there are times when the characters have to take matters into their own hands. Think about Harry Potter book 5, when very few people believed Harry for saying Voldemort was back, or Percy Jackson in the sea of monsters when he had to run away for the quest because Clarisse was chosen. It's not realistic to expect the characters to always have everyone on their side. That would make things way too easy on them. :) (hide spoiler)]

I have three questions.1. Is KOTLC or LTSF ever going to have a symbol for the series? (Like how the mortal instruments has the angelic rune, percy jackson has the trident, hunger games has the mocking jay) 2. Do you know what the color of the hardcover edition of Lodestar will be? (Like how everblaze was purple and neverseen was green) 3. What are all your cats names? (I LOVE PUTTING THINGS IN PARENTHESES!!!)

Hi Ms. Messenger. I'm a HUGE FAN of your Keeper of the Lost Cities Books. I really love the books, and I was wondering if there was any chance there would be a movie about it? I really hope so, because I would be SO EXCITED if there would be. I know this question was kinda a repeat, but I'm asking about a specific series. And also, 2nd question, you'll keep on writing more books to Keeper of the Lost Cities, right?
