I wanted to say how much I enjoy your books. I have been a fan since I first read Impetuous. I have 17 of your books so far and am looking forward to collecting more. Do you ever look at some of your older books and want to do updates on the characters or their next generation?

Hi Kelley and *thank you!*
You know, mostly when I look at older books I want to rewrite them. lol. I see soooo many things I would change to make the writing better. But alas, that's a time consuming job and would keep me from writing new books - so I don't get into it.
Occasionally I do want to write stories for secondary characters. For instance, in Just A Hint-Clint, I had always planned to write stories for his buddies, but I switched publishers before that could happen.
In fact, I've switched publishers a couple of times (never because I didn't LOVE my publisher, but because of contract negotiations) so there are a few unwritten secondary characters out there that I had hoped to feature. But that's the biz and I move on and just love writing new stories.
Thank you again!

Hi! I'm addicted to your books, and am very curious about your process. I'm curious what writing program you use for your books to keep track of all your overlapping characters and "worlds"? Also, what is your writing and research process when working on your books? Do you have a routine? Thanks in advance! Jolene

Lori Foster:
I know there is a list of the books that are connected...but I want to know in what order they should be read so it is somewhat of a continuous story? I got to the last book of one series (The Ultimate Series) only to find out that another series (Jude's Law) should have been before those. I know they can be stand alone, but would like to try and read in an order :)
