Hi Vernie, sorry it took me so long to answer! I think it's just a quirk of my writing style. I tend to leave things open rather than tie everything up in a neat little bow. It's not on purpose, it's just sort of how I do things...

Hello Bill, I have just finished 'Honestly Ben' and there is something that I cannot figure out. In this sequel to 'Openly Straight', why was Rafe insisting that much on having Ben assigned a gay (or bi, for that matter) label, although in the first book, it was quite his pride to try living without a label of any sort ? Thanks in advance for your reply ! -Andy (who is looking forward to reading your next book ... )

Hi, Bill! I've read Openly Straight and Out of the pocket this weekend and I loved the books! But most of all, I LOVED Ben and I LOVED Bobby! You created such gentle, yet very strong-willed characters! I know there's a sequel for Openly Straight (can't wait)! But I'm dying to know how did Bobby's life turn out? Did he get into a good college? Did he get to play professionally?!

Hi! First, I just wanted to tell you that I loved Openly Straight and Honestly Ben, I'm so happy to see more diverse characters, especially in teen books. My question is, will there be any more books in the Openly Straight universe? Maybe about Toby? Or are you moving on to something else? Thanks! -Aly
