FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
1A. Fox owns the right to the movie deal. There was a Nintendo game associated with the first game, but I have plans to make more video games for the books.
2Q. When will the next book be released?
2A. I usually only get release date information for the US, Canada and the UK. Those dates will be posted on the website and on my social media accounts as soon as they are available. If you live in another country, your best bet is to contact a local bookseller or the publisher of the series in your country. (The publisher is listed at the front of each book and on the book's spine.)
3Q. Can you release the books faster? I cannot wait!
3A. I really appreciate your enthusiasm. Unfortunately, I can't release the next book until it is written. Trust me, I'm writing as fast as I possibly can without sacrificing quality. Normally it takes me one full year to write each book. I'm trying my best to speed that up, but it's a slow process to make a book and get it right. Readers will always be able to read faster than I can write. Believe me, I want the books to be done as much as you do. I'm not keeping any complete manuscripts locked up on my computer just to be mean. If the book isn't out yet, that's because it isn't done yet!
4Q. Around how long does it take you to write a book?
4A. It takes around 6 months to 1 1/2 years to write a book. This depends on the book I am writing. Sorry for the wait!
5Q. Which series have you enjoyed more?
5A. I would have to say that I enjoyed the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series better just because that is what movies are being made off of, and it has had the most success.
