Allison asked Rick Riordan:

So I'm trying to find the PERFECT question to ask because gaaahhh you are one of the main authors that got me into writing. Anyway here we go.... Do you plan on touching on mental illness in any of your books? I haven't read Kane Chronicles or the new Apollo book you've written yet, but I was just wondering if you have or will because you touch on a lot of other things like religion and sexual orientation, etc.

Rick Riordan It's a great question. I don't know. I don't have a lot of personal experience teaching or working with kids with mental illness. Personal experience is where a lot of my information comes from. Certainly it is an important topic. I'll keep that in mind.
