Hi Kristen! First of all - thank you for writing such amazing books! You have a talent for creating characters that you just can't help but care for. I remember reading on your blog a long time ago about the struggles you had publishing your first novel. I wonder - is writing your full time job now? And how long did you have to hold on to your "day job" before you could do writing full time? Thanks for answering!

Kristen Simmons Hi Maria,

Thanks for reading those posts. That was a hard time, but so worth it in the long run. I learned so much about myself and my writing. Yes, I do write full-time right now, but I did not quit my day job until I had published the entire ARTICLE 5 series and written THE GLASS ARROW. So it was a while!

Thanks, and take care!
Kristen
