Hello, I just wanted to say that your book was amazing and I'm counting down the days until the next one comes out. What was the genesis point of your idea with the Sparks and Synergists etc? I'm 13 and into writing myself but I have trouble coming up with original ideas and plots. Thanks :)

Hi Deana:
I am delighted to hear you enjoyed Spark. :-) Hoorah! Stray is out Sept 1st this year. The idea for the trilogy came from a dream that I had which became the prologue of bk1. I woke up and began asking questions: why/how was I so fast/strong? How did I know there was a person in danger in the woods? Why was it my responsibility to save her? It didn't feel like magic, it felt like radio-active spider bite material and so I began to imagine something designed in a lab. Then of course I asked myself what would they be trying to achieve designing people with abilities and my imagination went beserk ... and hello Sparks, Strays, Shields ...

Anyway, so that previous question wasn't really question but yeah. So, I'm a Wattpad author and I really really love writing but I was wondering if you had any tips that would make writing a real book easier. I've wanted to start one for ages but I always seem to get to the action too quickly. Is there a way around that or...? Thank you for writing amazing books! I really love them! They are one of my faves! xx ~ TJ

Hi Rachael, I just wanted to say I love ur book Spark, it's one of my favourite books I ever read, well I've almost read it, 30 pages to go! What first attracted my attention to the book was its cover, I know u don't judge a book it's cover, but it drew me in, then I read the first page and was like OMG, I have to read this! Anyway I just wanted to thank you for writing this and ask when Shied is coming out?
