Hi Katie! My question is how are road names chosen for the Terror Gypsies? Like, Oz's mom is named Rebecca but her road name is Izzy. Is there a story behind giving her that name? Or any other characters specificallly? Would Emily, Breanna, and Violet have one?

(view spoiler)[Hi Nancy,
The road names are given to a member by other members of the club upon entering. Oz's real name is Jonathan, but Olivia nicknamed him Oz as a child and the club decided to keep it. Oz didn't officially become his road name until after he patched into the club.
For instance, in Walk the Edge, Razor's real name is Thomas. He was already patched in when the series began with Nowhere But Here. If we had met him before, everyone would have called him Thomas, but after he was patched in, they gave him the road name Razor.
The names are given for different reasons. As a reminder, as a joke, as something they see in their personality.
Pigpen for instance is ex-military, strong and drop dead gorgeous. But the club called him Pigpen as a joke. Man O' War was given his name because when he gets into a fist fight, his hits sting and take people out.
Would Emily, Breanna, and Violet receive road names? If they join the Terror Gypsies they would receive road names.
Thank you for the question!

Hi Katie! I'm a huge fan and have read just about anything I can get my hands on of yours. I especially love reading about Noah and Echo's journey. I just read the announcement of The Proposal if you preorder Walk The Edge. I have the book I just didn't realize about the deal. Is there any way I could and get the short story The Proposal? Thanks for everything you do! Hope you come to Ohio soon!

I just finished Walk the Edge and I absolutely loved it! I can't wait for the next book in the series! It looks like I missed out on the promotion of Walk the Edge that included Noah and Echo's engagement story. Was that the only opportunity to get it? I love Noah and Echo and would love to read their engagement story. Is there anyway to get my hands on it now? Thanks!! Love all of your books!
