Rebekah
Rebekah asked Rick Riordan:

Did you have to show The Lightning Thief to multiple agents, or was it accepted the first time? Love you work, by the way :)

Rick Riordan Yes, multiple agents. Then multiple editors. That's pretty common.

Luna Cave
Luna Cave asked Rick Riordan:

Hi Rick, I’m sorry if it was before. Have you ever thought about adding disabled characters in your books? Maybe even main characters ? I’d love to read about a very badass disabled demi-god!

mari
mari asked Rick Riordan:

Hey, Rick! I'm very curious to know this: how do you feel about your brazilian fans calling you "Tio Ricky" or "Tio RiRi", which is basically "Uncle Ricky" and "Uncle RiRi", if you translate to English? p.s. "RiRi" is pronouced like "hihi"

Erina Lanes
Erina Lanes asked Rick Riordan:

Mr.Riordan, I don't know if you still see or answer these questions, but there's something I wanted to ask. Ever since 2005, you released a book every year. But the Nico standalone novel is being released in 2023 (so that means there's no book in 2022). Does it bother you that the long streak is broken? Or do you feel relieved?

All answers from Rick Riordan…
