If you could be a character in your books for a day, who would you be and why?





If I could be one of our characters for a say, it would definitely be Amma. She is a Mortal, but she's a powerful Seer. I would love to see the world through her eyes -- and find out what's in all those mason jars in her bedroom. (Of course, I'd also bake myself some pie.)



Can you name one moment that stands out as a favorite since you've become a writer?

The moment I really realized I was a writer was when the galley (Advanced Reader Edition) of BEAUTIFUL CREATURES arrived at my house. Holding the actual book made it real for me.


What is your favorite place to write? Is there anything you need in order to write? (i.e. coffee, chocolate, music, etc.)

My favorite place to write is in my "comfy chair." It's an old Eames chair with an ottoman. I need complete silence because I actually hear the characters voices in my head as I'm writing. Aside from that -- my laptop, an endless supply of Diet Coke with lots of ice, some Black Sabbath or Soundgarden before I start writing, and my dog Spike, who sleeps in his bed next to while I write.


Tell us about your latest or upcoming release.


There are four books in The Caster Chronicles. The third book is really about the consequences of the choices the characters make in BEAUTIFUL DARKNESS. We delve deeper into the Caster world, and Ethan and Lena's relationship. We also kill some people...
