Ketley Allison Hi Markéta!

Yes, there will absolutely be a sequel. I expect it'll be published early next year. I'm sorry for the cliffhanger lol! It was honestly meant to be one book but as I neared the end I could not close off these characters' stories. There was so much more to do and say! But it means the world that you enjoyed it, and I can't wait to release the sequel into your hands as soon as it's ready!
Ketley Allison Hi Michelle!
Yes! Absolutely. I'm actually working on Book 3 now. It's taking a bit longer because I really want this to conclude as a trilogy and Asher and Emily deserve to go out with a bang. I'm thinking early next year you'll be able to finish their story. Thank you for asking!
Ketley Allison Thank you, Chanpreet! Each installment will be coming out the first of every month. So part 4, SACRED, will be available January 1st!

Ketley Allison Hi Victoria! I do like to keep you on your toes - hence that ending! There will be about 7 novellas in the series though, so plenty of time for more twists and turns :) I hope you're enjoying the series!

Ketley Allison Hi Vivian! This is a tough one to answer, because it's a decision I wrestled with for quite a while before ultimately deciding to make Snapped a monthly novella series. The simple answer is - I was excited to try something new and different! I wanted intrigue, and I felt that would fall short on just one book. So I thought maybe I could make it two or three books, but then when I outlined, the points where I wanted to cut off and start a new book were so staggered and uneven that it worked better to cut the series into novellas as I wrote. This is a step-by-step process that's not in stone yet - the end is still in development! And while my other series may not do this, I feel that the Snapped Series was best represented by novella-length parts.

I love that you're excited!! You're the reason I love what I do. Keep your eyes peeled for the first of every month - that's when each installment will come out!
Ketley Allison Yes! I am. After a lot of research and thought, I decided this was the best route for me, especially when I began writing paranormal and realized it was tough to be published traditionally, since this was a "saturated" market. So I researched indie publishing for my Dark Souls Series and realized I loved the control and freedom self-publishing allowed me. That's not to say I don't approach it seriously - I use professional editors and cover designers to ensure I provide my best work possible to readers. It is a learning curve, however, and I find I learn something new every time I hit "publish." My one hope is that I help prove that self-publishing isn't a last resort and that for many indie authors, this is a choice, and we approach it with professionalism and decorum - and love it!
Ketley Allison Thank you so much, Maria! The Snapped series will be approximately 7 parts. And the action is just getting started :)
