Tiffany Lin asked Shannon Messenger:

How far into Book 6 are you? I finished Lodestar and I'm so excited for Book 6 . . . do you have any ideas of what you will name it? You are the best author ever, and Keeper of the Lost Cities is my favorite series! Right after I finished Lodestar, I started rereading book one and plan to read the whole series over and over. I will never get tired of it!

Shannon Messenger I am still (sadly) writing the first draft of NIGHTFALL. And when I'm done there will be lots of revising to get the book *right*. So lots of hard work and sleepless nights for me ahead. Writing as fast as I can, I promise!

I know that this is kind of far out there, but do you have a photographic memory? I ask because you describe the memories of Sophie and Keefe just like I would expect for someone with a photographic memory and it's really interesting to me!

Sarah N asked Shannon Messenger:

Hi! I have several questions, actually. here goes: if Dex's parents are a bad match, how did he get into Foxfire? Or do all elf kids just automatically get in, and the ones who are labelled "hopeless cases" get sent to Exillium? Also, would you be willing to tell me how much it cost to get one of your books published? I'm hoping to be published someday, and I was just curious.

Tiffany Vo asked Shannon Messenger:

If there existed an alter-universe where the Shannon Messenger over there was the exact opposite of how you are here, would you be well acquainted with yourself enough to know what she would be like? What her personality consists of? Her career choice? Anything at all?
