Not really a question, but I was surprised when on a recent trip to Oregon we passed Ashland on Interstate 5. Your description in your series led me expect a rather small town, but Ashland much larger! Of course, I know that your depiction is fictional. Would you consider including a map of YOUR Ashland showing the main street businesses and other important landmarks in future books?

Hi Sandy,
So sorry for the very belated answer. I never received notification from Goodreads that questions were waiting.
How fun that you were able to see Ashland. It has a population of about 20,000 and Jules references that in the books. Although, you're right. For my fictional version of the town I condense a lot of the action into the plaza, OSF campus, and Lithia Park. I love the idea of creating a map! And, I'm getting ready to start rolling out some short videos on my social media that show the real versus imagined versions of Ashland. Happy reading!
