Paula
Paula asked Jennifer Donnelly:

Was being a writer your dream when you were young? Or did it just kinda happen?

Jennifer Donnelly First a dream, then a lot of hard work. Nothing "kinda" about it!

Katrina Ryan asked Jennifer Donnelly:

I just wanted to say thank you for writing "A Northern Light". I picked it up in 2007 and read it on my cabin porch during a thunderstorm. Since then I have had to re-read it over and over again because I was so in love with Mattie's story. It is absolutely my favorite book, without a question! I know you've written many wonderful books since then, but would you ever consider diving back into Mattie's world?
