Will we learn more about why Jacinda's twin sister Tamra didn't manifest in Banished (Firelight 2)?
Yes, you will, but I can't say anymore.
What led you to write Paranormalcy?
I was really bored. Someone said to write a vampire book, and I asked Why? People were already writing vampire books. I thought to myself, what could I do differently? What if they didn't want to kill the vampires?
How do you write so well?
Nancy Werlin - By writing a lot of crap!
Any spoilers?
Sophie Jordan - in Banished (Firelight 2), Jacinda will spend 1/2 of the time back at the pride where she has trouble getting along with Cassian's sister. Cassian's sister is a Visio Crypter - she can blend into her surrounding like a chameleon. In a sense, she is invisible. She's also a big brat!
Nancy Werlin - I am writing a book about death that will tie in Impossible and Extraordinary.
Melissa de la Cruz - Kingsley isn't dead!
Kiersten White - Evie spends a lot of time in the faerie world in Supernaturally (Paranormalcy 2).
