Hi. That’s… really true. That also reminds me of a question I had a long time ago but forgot! Also, sorry that the series didn’t get anywhere. Even if it technically wasn’t “yours” you still worked hard on it. I know the outlining was awesome since you’re super experienced and all of your books are awesome, I think. Well, you know I think that I just said that. [insert facepalm].

You know, I’m going to semi-organize my forum post so that your brain doesn’t have to work overtime just trying to figure out what in the world I’m talking about. I’ll just post the questions under these paragraphs! So, about being a kid writer! Also, you replied really really fast. Hi!

I literally said Hi twice. Now that’s a third! Cool. And, yeah, who needs research? I don’t like it. Only plotting! That’s why Fantasy is awesome. Research? Pfft, what is that? Everything in my story is made up and came straight from my brain! Yet it still makes sense! (Most of the time!) Muahahahaha!

Anyway, I think that’s all. Bye! (I’ve talked so much on here today!)

Be blessed,

[Characters 29-32 on the line above “Be blessed,”]

(P.S.) Here are the questions.

1) [This is the question mentioned in the first paragraph that I recalled due to your reply.] Is it okay not to do a lot of research on the setting in a book? Are any of the settings in your books made-believe? Do people notice the little slights that may be there, or no, or does the editor get them? How do you pick a setting for a novel?
2) When did you stop considering yourself a “kid” writer? Does that title apply to age and writing experience, or either or?

3) Do you have any drafts/ideas you never turned into books? If so, why, and/or how many drafts?

4) I feel like I asked this a few months ago, but who is your favorite character to ever have written?
