Libra...you guys crack me up!
Let's see...let's see...a secret from Aeron's story. Well, you know the saying "The devil made me do it?" In this story, one character can say that and it's actually true.

Wow.. that's a great spoiler! Now... if you can just elaborate that into a 3 paragraph description then I'm sure the fans will worship the ground you walk on ![]()
Oh, another thing. We know that kresley's got a ton of animals. What about you? Any current pets? Or tales of tragedy during childhood when your mother told you that your goldfish went on to the goldfish resort and likes it there too much that it's staying there or the like? I'm imagining something along the lines that your mother buried your pet under the floorboards and you surprised her by knocking the door and suddenly chatting with her. Then your mother started sweating and hearing the thud thud of your pet's heart but you seem oblivious. And when suddenly she couldn't take it anymore she started screaming and confessed that she accidently sat on miss tuffy and snapped her neck in two but then miss tuffy just wouldnt die, its her eye!.
*sigh*
Plagiarism... its no wonder why I can't become a writer XD

Amun and Kaia probably won't work because Kaia kinda sorta spends a night with Paris. (that's a tidbit from the upcoming books and that is not to say she's his heroine. But I totally shouldn't have spilled!
I see what you mean, Kresley -- they're very good at getting the info out of us. I didn't have a chance of keeping this quiet LOL)
Well, as far as I am concerned, you can spill as much as you like, Gena! Keep doin' that, it's quite a nice character trait to have! ![]()
"kinda sorta" spends a night with Paris? How do you do that? Did they or did they not? Now you've got me intrigued...
Hm, I've always hoped for Sienna as Paris's heroine. You know, although she was a "bad girl" (or should I say "bait girl" - haha, stupid pun intended, as always!) I really, really liked her and that story about those two is just the most heartwrenching thing in this series EVER. His suffering is just so ... heartbreaking, I think it's so sweet and beautiful that she's so special to him (helloho, made him hard twice!
) and, you know, for him to find his love with some other woman just seems ... wrong to me, somehow, because of all they've been through (and that little tidbit about Sienna in The Darkest Prison had me wondering how she'll get out of that situation...), together and separated. *sniff*
Oh, just some rambling from my side (I won't coerce you into something, believe me - as if I could, haha!). I only wanted to tell you how I'm feeling...

Gena Showalter: I just want to thank you sooo much for your books. They are the hardest books to put down!! I first read the nymph king and I read it in a 5 hour sitting, didnt get up once! Amazing! Will there be other books in the Atlantis series after The Vampires Bride?? You are like one of my FAVORITE authors ever and I can't wait to read them all. BTW, what is you favorite book and/or seies that you've written?

alicethepixie,
Thank you so so much!! I'm not sure if there will be another Atlantis book (right now nothing is in the works) But I never say never (unless I do, in fact, say never) I'd like to write at least one more book in that series to tie all the threads together. One of my favorite books to write was Tempt Me Eternally (part of Deep Kiss) because of the fun I had with Kresley. The back and forth between us was a blast!! A fave story of mine is Seduce the Darkness. Writing Devyn, the oh, so charming narcissistic
womanizer was...dreamy

Babies are slobberous? ~__~
Ahem, gena...
Bethanne told us to ask as much question as I can so here I go ![]()
-If you have ... I dunno, 1 day to live? what's the most bizarre food that normally you wouldnt even look at, but then you thought "I'm dying! might as well taste it while I have the chance!' then you'd go for it.
- While we're at that... what is the weirdest thing you've ever eaten?
- And~ what is the most weirdest thing you have personally witnessed
- What type of holiday scenery do you prefer? Beaches and sun? The fresh air mountain? A shopping paradise, Historical places, yada yada.
-How exactly did you and kresley meet thus forming the mischievous and misbehaving duo that we see today,
-What's 4 things you'd like to do before you pop your clogs?
-Growing up, who was your favorite singer. The one you and your friends gush about and you singing holding your hairbrush while pretending to be her/him. Or any dance enactment you and your friends did as a tribute to the now possibly forgotten idol.
- How does an elephant eat a banana? Swallow the skin as well?
Hmm... disjointed and somewhat random questions...
Ah well... this IS a Q&A ( I'll probably get banned after this XD)
lol you don't have to answer the last one.

And I was wondering about Lanthe and Thronos. I think there's a hint or two that those two had a history even before that day when Thronos sprang from the window. It'll be interesting to read that!
It's true--they do have a history. I've already written that first meet scene--got cut from KDK--but it makes me go awwww every time I reread.

You do realize that by saying you've already worked out the michael/mortal conundrum, it can be construed by crazy fans( me! me!) that you've confirmed that michael will have an immortal love interest a.k.a Cara.Mystery!! she admitted it! Jot that down quickly.
