Kayla Duff You can ask Lynn basically anything here, and she'll do her best to answer it.
(Lynn, if you have a problem with this, tell me and I'll take it off...)

I'd love a chance to interact with readers and those thinking about self-publishing too!


message 3: by Kayla (new)

Kayla Duff Awesome! Now I just have to get members... there's not that many people who have read your book, I'd bet. Ooh, my mom finished it! She found quite a few printing mistakes, so I'm told... I would have found them but I seem to have issues with reading everything... I tend to skim-read.

I'd definitely be interested in any typos. I've already corrected the one you found on the kindle version.

Did she like it otherwise?


message 5: by Kayla (new)

Kayla Duff Yes, she did. You got some major compliments from both of us. After we take the pic, my next stop will be my librarian, she wanted to read it.
There weren't that many mistakes, just five or six, I think.

Kayla,

Do you have any questions to get us started?


message 7: by Kayla (new)

Kayla Duff Hmmm... well, I do, actually. I was wondering how you came up with the idea of rhyming magic? That has always seemed childish to me, but it works really well with your novel.

I was thinking about trying to memorize a group of words. It occurred to me that if they rhymed it would make them easier to recall: how many of us can still recite Humpty Dumpty?

If you recall, Merithin, the master sorcerer, didn't have to rhyme... Hmmm, could it be that the rhymes aren't necessary, just Reba's eccentricity? Or perhaps just for novices? Later books will explore this in greater detail. (book three I believe)

Kayla Duff ME!!!!!!! I LOVE Humpty Dumpty.
Cool, can't wait! Yes, maybe the rhyming is just Reba's way of doing magic... it makes sense to her.
