If you could travel to any fictional book world, where would you go and what would you do there?

Brenda Pandos This might be cheating, but I would go to Natatoria. I'd just swim around, enjoying all the beauty of the homes and sea creatures, and visit the palace. Just to see what I've imagined would be incredible! How about you?

Sorry to hear about your stroke. My husband also had one during a surgery. Unbelievable how this happens. I hope u are well as can be expected. I have read the mer tails, yes pun intended, four times start to finish now. I'm an avid reader and you are a wonderful author! Thank you for sharing your talent with us! Question: CAN U TELL ME DATE OF FIFTH MERMAID BOOK AFTER EVERMORE? Thank u and hugs

Brenda Pandos Hi Laura, I'm honored you're loving my mer tales series. I'd love to give you a date on the 5th mermaid book, but unfortunately the creative side of my brain I'd used to write fiction hasn't returned. But when it does, that'll be the first book I write. Thank you for the encouragement! I'm so sorry to hear about your husband. Yes, it's crazy how that happened. I hope he's doing better.
Hugs to you too!

Can you tell us a two-sentence horror story?

Brenda Pandos A noise sounded behind me. I turned, heart pumping, and saw a flash of a knife slicing downward toward me.

What books are on your summer reading list this year?

Brenda Pandos That's a good question. Actually, to be honest, I haven't ever made a reading list. I like to be spontaneous with what I'm reading. I just finished a stroke memoir and I'm now working on a parenting book.

Hi Brenda, I am reading the Mer series right now and I am on the last book. I have a question that has been nagging at me for most of the series...how old is Ash's sister Lucy supposed to be? Thank you, Amber

Brenda Pandos Good question. 14 but closer to 15 in Evermore. I'm so glad you're enjoying the series. :)

What mystery in your own life could be a plot for a book?

Brenda Pandos Thank you for your question. It's taken some thought to answer. I think it would be if or when I'd write again. If you didn't know, I've suffered a stroke. While I've had a miraculous recovery, the creative side of my brain I'd used to write stories with hasn't returned. Maybe I should pen my memoir of what happened.

Are you writing another mer tales book? I have loved reading this series and am anxious for another book!!

Brenda Pandos I am. It's been a little rough with my recent stroke, but I believe that the desire and inspiration for writing will come back. I've had a good recovery so far, so I'm not worried. Thanks for asking!

Are you Mormon? I am reading Ever blue, and Ash said that she would have three hours to herself. Idk any other church that goes on for three hours like mine does. Btw I love the Christian bits, like them praying at the meet. It is actually ridiculously comforting to read stuff like that, and I can't remember the last time I read a book with any sort of religion referenced.

Brenda Pandos Actually, I'm a Christian. I'm glad you're enjoying the story. :) My mom used to pray with me before I swam. It's a special memory for me. Enjoy!

Hi I loved your book glitch and switch fantastic reads are you bringing out a book 3 in this series?

Brenda Pandos Good question. I had a stroke in December after an elective procedure so... writing is on hold for the moment during recovery. It's a tricky book to write and required a timeline program. I'm hoping it'll be released in the late 2016. *fingers crossed* Thanks for asking!

I love mermaid tales. What inspired you to write the Mer Tales series and about the promise?

Brenda Pandos The movie Splash, and The Little Mermaid inspired my love of mermaids when I was younger (and I wanted to be one) so it just seemed natural to create a story about them.
