Hello! Would you ever consider making/publishing a Keeper coloring book? I thought of this when I saw the Keeper character sketches on Instagram. If there was a sketch for every character in the series, that would make a really cool coloring book. Just an idea. :D Also, I LOVE Keeper. Thank you so much for your work writing it! I pre-ordered Neverseen, and I can't WAIT till it comes out! Thanks, Booklover

This is one of those things where the legality of it gets super tricky, between the fact that my publisher owns certain rights to the KEEPER books, and then the artist who created those drawings would need to give their permission (and likely earn a royalty). Plus, each of those character sketches is a commissioned piece, so having her create additional sketches for characters that haven't already been drawn would cost $$$. So all I can really say is, "maybe." Someday I might have time to figure all of that out. But right now I have far too many writing deadlines to keep up with.

Hi Ms. Messenger! I have a kind of odd question for you. =) On the cover of Neverseen, do you know what the rest of Sophie's pants look like, and what shoes she's wearing? I was curious as to what her whole outfit that she's wearing on the cover looked like, cause it only shows half of her in the picture. :) Thanks so much for your time!! ^_^ ~Booklover (A Keeper fan - you are an amazing author!)

How exactly do elves age? Sophie fit in fine with the human world for twelve years, but does it slow down later on? They never get old and wrinkly, unless they eat ruckle berries, right? So do elves reach their prime, and everything stops except their ears? Thank you!
