Zoë
asked
Jennifer A. Nielsen:
Hello! I'm a big fan of yours, and I've read most of your books. However, I did notice that there aren't any LGBTQ+ characters in any novels of yours that I've read. I understand that many of your novels are set in a time period where it would probably be unsafe for them to be openly not straight, but I also believe that it is important to have a diverse set of characters. Why didn't you include these types of people?
Jennifer A. Nielsen
No reason, Zoë. There are many types of people I have yet to write in as characters, and I will one day when the story calls for them.

Jennifer A. Nielsen:
Hi Mrs. Nielsen! I'm Parker (I sent you a letter in Fall if you remember. Thanks for the reply BTW!) I was wondering if you have any ideas of what books you will be writing after your current series .Also, I know this is weird, but I saw that you live in Utah (your bio on your books) and I was wondering; Are you LDS/Mormon? I'm not against Mormons or anything, in fact, I am LDS. Thank you for doing what you do!
Ava
asked
Jennifer A. Nielsen:
Hi my name is Ava and I am a huge fan of the Ascendance series. It gave me a world to escape to when I did not like the world I was in. It has inspired me to write poetry and enter some contests. I wanted to ask you, what was your inspiration for the Ascendance series and why did you want to write it? Is there a possibility of a movie in the near future? Thanks!
