Ask em if you’ve got em!

Kimberly asks: Are there more Petal, GA books planned?

Yes! The next book will be Beth’s. It’s all just a matter of having the time to do my proposal and writing it. I’m hoping late 2012.

Julia asks: Will there be a follow up book to Goddess With A Blade?

I’d very much like to write a follow up! As with the Petal answer above, it’s just a matter of finding the time! I did discuss the idea with my editor just last week though! Hopefully end of 2012, early 2013.

Christine asks: I was little confused in Heart of Darkness if Edwina had been involved w/ two people one being her bondmate and one if one person was Meriel’s father or are they the same person?

In some cases, a magickal bond mate is not romantic/sexual – as with Edwina and Ron. There’s nothing romantic there, they’re just bond-mates and she’s married to Meriel’s father.

and And I guess to clarify my ques from last week b/c I wasn’t clear will there be a book with characters from the de la vega series and the bound by magic series being the main focus since they are fighting the same enemy?

Aside from Kendra and Renee, the witch issue isn’t central to the de La Vega story arc. Gibson’s book happens in the time before Chaos Burning starts, so the big, earth changing events from that book won’t be part of their world. Yet. There are some familiar characters in Heart of Darkness (some Cascadia wolves, mention of Kendra and Renee, Arel is there, etc), but at this point, no I don’t plan on having the two series intersect that way.

and Finally any clues who the fourth book will be about since I am taking a guess the third is about Gage? When they are coming out?

Yes, Gage’s book is next. I’m plotting it this week and I need to figure out if this will be a three or four book series. I never want to drag a story out longer than it has to be so when I’m working on Gage’s story, I’ll have a better handle on that. Chaos Burning is out in June so if they do buy more and if they keep to the same basic schedule it’ll be late in 2012 sometime for book 3 and then early summer for the last book.
