No question, JRR Tolkien's world, I'd like to meet the hobbits and Gandolf, not Saruman! I am astounded by the authors who create creature after creature, country after country, etc. and the complexity of their invention.

Dear Elizabeth, thanks so much for asking! My sister and co-author, Debbie Zook, is putting the finishing touches on a second Miranda Hathaway as we speak. This is a first draft. She will then send it on to me and I'll add and edit. Then it goes back to her. Sometimes it takes us five or six drafts but once the preliminary is written, it goes quickly. So your answer is YES and we would hope to have it out by April (fingers crossed). Mary

I don't permit it. It's a screen, put something on it. Could be landscape, scenery, a snippet of dialogue, mind dump. You're always thinking something.

My sister and I have had some totally unexpected moments of fame: having people come up to you to talk about a character or wait in line to get a book signed. My sister has been recognized in a restaurant by someone who just had to tell her how much she enjoyed our books! The very best is when people forget that the characters aren't real!

I know this sounds odd but I frequently dream up these situations, literally--in my dreams. Then I have to write them down to get them out of my head.

This was an easy one. We have written Lying for A Living: Meredith Abbott's Adventures in Hollywood. At the end of that book, she's off for adventures in England. So we are currently editing the book that shares those adventures.
