Janice Hughes
Janice Hughes asked Gena Showalter:

The Alice in Zombieland books were AMAZING! Have you thought about doing more? Or even a series similar, like maybe with a Red Riding Hood Character?

Indya Weathers
Indya Weathers asked Gena Showalter:

Hi Gena I am a big fan of your young adult Intertwined series. When will you complete writing the final book so that we can find out what happens to the characters? I recall on your website you promised us that you would have it ready eventually, but needed some time to get your thoughts together. It's been a few years and was wondering if you plan on ever finishing at all, and If so when can we expect it?

Lynn Trevino
Lynn Trevino asked Gena Showalter:

How long had the Lords been living in your head before you decided to put them down on paper? What made it all click for you that it was time to introduce them to the world.
