LOL sorry for all the questions but i really like talking to you! Anyways... When you made up Base Quest did you base it off of a game that's already made up? I was thinking maybe a little bit of Capture the Flag?

Shannon Messenger I took a little from Capture the Flag, a little from Hide 'N Seek, and a little from some of the games of Tag my friends and I would play when we were kids. Mostly I wanted something simple so I wouldn't have to explain a lot of complicated rules. I also wanted it to be the kind of game you play in your backyard with a few friends, not one where you have to go to a special field with special equipment and need practice and training, etc.

And no worries on asking lots of questions. I've fallen a bit behind on them--hazards of deadlines--but I never mind answering when I get around to it.

Erica asked Shannon Messenger:

Hey! So, I was wondering, are you thinking or like, want to start a new series besides the two you have now? Or are you good with just Keeper of the Lost cities and Let the sky fall?

Mechelle asked Shannon Messenger:

The SkyFall Series is extremely compelling and I loved every bit of it. However, I couldn't believe that I missed the release for book 3, since I already had book 1 and 2 displayed on my bookshelf dedicated to my most beloved books. I was wondering if there was a way for me to get or purchase the postcards distributed in the preorder giveaway because I love the depictions of Vane and Audra on them so much? Thanks :D
