Hi Kristen! I have read all your books and not just once ;) and love them all. I like the fact that your characters are more mature and in their early 40's but I was wondering if you would consider writing a book based on YA genre? You have already written a bit in The Burg series At Peace, Golden Trail, Games Of The Heart (Fin and Reesee so cute) and I loved it. Thank you <3

Hey there,
Thanks for the lovely things you said about my books and delighted you enjoy them!
As for YA, after Fin and Reesee in GAMES OF THE HEART and Keira and Jasper in GOLDEN TRAIL, I've had a number of requests for this. And I've had others share they hope I don't go that way! HA! I hope it comes through that I thoroughly enjoyed telling Fin and Reesee and Keira and Jasper's stories. And because of that, and the request for it, I have considered it.
That said, it's only gone that far...considering it. This doesn't mean it'll never happy. But if it does happen, the characters will have to come through like the characters come through now when I dive into a book.
In other words, nothing's on the horizon and I don't have anything bubbling in the back of my head. But I always keep doors open!

I'm really curious about something, might be silly, but how do you think Roxie reacted when she heard about everything that happened in the 'bur? If I'm not wrong, even though she's younger than them, she grew up there and she'd probably known them all her life! And what about knowing her parents still live in the 'burg and went through all that craziness? did Trish give her daily updates? Is Herb a regular at J&J's?

I absolutely adore your books! Hands down, all time favorite is Golden Dynasty. I was enchanted with the Korwahk world you created and haven't been able to find that enchantment elsewhere. Have you given thought to writing about the secondary characters from Golden Dynasty? I would love to devour their stories and loved the snippets of Zahnin and Bain in Broken Dove.
