Jeanni Gow asked Charlaine Harris:

Greetings Charlaine I am struggling to find an honest Publishing Co SO far have been cheated by 3 Publishing Companies First one pretends to be a Canadian Publishing Co but instead is a Call Center in the Philippines with phony British names and accents Now I am trying again but the contract they want signed is a JOKE Pls give me a quick call so I can get a Lawyer to protect my book Thankyou ?

Charlaine Harris Jeanni, first of all I'm sorry you've had such a bad experience. When you research a publisher, get in touch with people they've previously published. Every reputable publisher will have a list of their titles on their web page. Secondly, check out Preditors and Editors, a very helpful website with lots of information for pre-published writers. You should be able to make a better decision after these steps.

I am really into your Midnight, Texas series and can't put them down. As a new writer myself, I wanted to ask: What gave you the inspiration to write the three books?

Jenny asked Charlaine Harris:

I've seen you state that you have to wait till or if your publisher requests for you to write more books in a series. Is that how it is for all your book series? If you have an idea, something you think might really work/add to a series can you pitch it to someone? How does that process work? And what's your process when you come up with a brand new idea for a book or series? Thanks!! :)
