Korrie Harmon asked Sherrilyn Kenyon:

My friend who's a cross between Styxx and Acheron showed me your work. Styxx was the first of your books I read. I can get bored easily with books. Styxx made me cry at page 10, your characters are so gritty & real. I was so emotionally invested in Styxx that every awful thing was a kick in the gut. It's beautiful! What inspires these ornery yet lovable characters? What made you want to write? You're an inspiration!

Sherrilyn Kenyon I'm glad you enjoyed it! I write for the characters. They won't let me rest until I get their stories down on paper. To me, they are as real as anyone. It's kind of spooky, but that's the truth. I've been writing all my life. I honestly wrote my first novel when I was eight. Okay, it was mostly illustrated, but it was a full novel :) and it was sixty pages.
