Hello! I just started reading your Keeper of Lost Cities series, and I'm really loving it! Your writing is just incredibly captivating, and I cannot wait to read the next book! My question for you is...where did you gain inspiration for Keeper? Was there a specific place you retreated to brainstorm, or did your ideas just come to you at moments least expected? The whole idea for this series is just so neat to me!

Shannon Messenger Aw, thank you very much! :) And as I've said in other answers, I found my inspiration for the series from all kinds of different places. I feel like my real job as an author is to be observant and let my imagination wander to a lot of "what ifs?"

I think that if you teamed up with Rick Riordan the book would be so awesome that the human race wouldn't be able to handle it.(but maybe the elves would!:) That out of the way, where in the worlds are the elf cities? Its never mentioned in the books, except the Sanctuary.
