Hey Lori! I just finished Holding Strong and I was wondering how did you come up with Cherry's name? I don't know if you already answered this, but if you did I missed it. Could you tell me?

Hi Jada,
Thanks for the question! I don't think I've ever been asked this one before.
Cherry, like nearly every other character's name, was likely chosen in one of two ways - although I can't remember exactly anymore.
Most names are a combo taken from names of readers who post on Facebook fan page - www.Facebook.com/LoriFoster
I'll see a first name I like, a separate last name I like, and I'll put them together.
I've also found names that appeal to me by strolling through graveyards. I know movies and books often portray graveyards as creepy, but I've found them to be very peaceful, and inspirational.
Have a wonderful day!

Good morning Lori! My question is how hard (or easy) is it to write the stories where the characters are connected in the series? Especially bringing Cannon in the Ultimate Series after he was introduced in the Undercover Series, etc. I realize he didn't have a big role, but I would think it might become confusing. It would be for me, but you do an excellent job of it! Happy Release Day!!!

Holding Strong is due for release in March 2015 however the pre-order is for paperback only, no Kindle or electronic version. Do we know if there is going to be an electronic version available? Lori hasn't released a new book that wasn't available in Kindle for a very long time. Thanks.
