I love your writing, but am long past high school and university. Still, I really enjoyed the "Devil's Night" series. Do you ever consider writing for adults as well as young adults?
Penelope Douglas
Hey, Catherine!
Actually, none of my books are for young adults. They're for women like me who enjoy stories of young love and firsts. Since they have lots of language and intimacy, I don't try to sell them to minors. As a 42 year old woman, I can definitely say they're for adult readers who just want to go back and relive those moments ;)

Hello! I just started reading Falling Away. (And I can't wait to watch K.C. pop like a little repressed balloon.) I am curious about the town this series takes place in, since I grew up in Illinois myself. Is Shelburne Falls based on a real life town? And if so, is it Rockford?
