Nora asked Penny Reid:

Is Janie a virgin in the beginning of Neanderthal Seeks Human? Just wonderin'.

Penny Reid No. Janie is in the midst of breaking up with her live-in boyfriend of 5 years when the book starts.

Of note:
-Elizabeth from Friends Without Benefits has 4-5 sexual partners before her books starts.
-Sandra from Love Hacked has 3 or more sexual partners before her book starts.
-Ashley from Beauty and the Mustache has 3 or more sexual partners before her book starts.

The only "virgin" heroine I've ever written is Kaitlyn Parker from Elements of Chemistry (EOC is a New Adult and she was/is 19, so... not terribly far-fetched).

Hi Penny - super huge fan from down under. I know you've had to cancel some book signings this year from your newsletter - but just wondering if you were planning on coming down to Melbourne, Australia in September next year?! fingers crossed

Elisabeth asked Penny Reid:

So what is the average length of eyebrow hairs? I see quite a lot of eyebrows every day at work, so this would be a fascinating fact to give to customers ;)

Paloma asked Penny Reid:

In the Hooker and the Hermit...who created Ronan and who created Annie?
