Hi Gena! I haven't yet read your latest series but I can't wait to read them! I am a huge fan of the White Rabbit Chronicles series. So my question to you, who was your insparation in creating the characters? Were they family members, friends, neighbors? Thank you!! (Love your writing!)
Gena Showalter
Thank you!
Cole is an amalgamation of everything I love about romance novel heroes. Alpha, protective, courageous, irreverent, loyal, fascinated by one woman, witty, strong, capable and (at heart) kind.
I wrote Ali to be his equal. She is as protective, courageous, strong and capable as Cole, and her sense of humor delighted me. She's just as kind, but she's no pushover. Her loyalty must be earned, but once it is, she will die for you if necessary.
Basically, when I sat down to write Alice in Zombieland, I had a single objective with each character. Cole: Make him a boy I want to date. Ali: Make her a girl I want to hang out with. :)

I love all of your PRN books and always wait impatiently for one to come out. I just finished rereading your Atlantis series and wonder if you will ever return there. There are so many characters yet that I am curious about and would love to see their stories?
