Katie, what made you start writing? How did you know you wanted to be a writer?

Hi Amy,
Storytelling has always been a part of me. I'm the kid who used to sit in class staring at the teacher talking yet I was forming a story in my head about the cute guy next to me and how when a comet hit our city that he and I would lead the survivors to safety.
Yep, that was me. :-)
Storytelling was a gift given to me by God, but truth is--I didn't think I was a good enough writer so I never pursued writing as a career. A few years ago I finally stopped listening to the negative voices in my head and asked a brilliant question: Why not me?
Why can't I get published? Why can't I be a writer?
The only person holding me back was myself.
I'm very glad I finally found the courage to pursue my dream.
Thank you,
Katie

Hiya There Katie, I just finished reading both the Pushing the Limits and Thunder Roads series, They were phenomenal! I couldn't choose which I liked more because they were both incredible!. So my question(s) are in the PTL series which girls(haley, echo,beth,rachel, abby, Lacy) become the closest? Also which years are the series taken place in? I had an idea that they were in 2016/2017? Thanks! Kisses!

Hi there, I love all your books and I'm so excited for Say You'll remember me! I just have three questions. 1). After the series do you think about your characters futures such as weddings, kids and where they live?- when you have an idea do you write about their futures? 2) Who in your mind would have the biggest wedding for the PTL and Thunder road series?
