Hey, Heather! Thank you so much for reading and loving them! I am so sorry that I didn't see this question sooner! The easy answer to it is absolutely. I can't wait to extend this story into a full length, standalone. This project is on my priority list of projects in 2023 that I have planned. I hope this helps answer your question!

Hello! There will be 4 more after this. Marek and Palmer will have one more, and then the three to follow will be from each of the boys POV. Hope you enjoy GHS.

Oh, thank you so much! I'm happy to hear you loved their stories! Right now I am currently working on a different project outside of the Our Worlds Series. It's in a different genre, so it's a whole experience as I work the story. I'll have more information to share as I get deeper into it. I think a much needed break and clearing of my head was needed from the Our Worlds Series, but I do have every intention of going back and exploring Rico's and Amanda's story since When Our Worlds Ignite ended with them sort of in a weird little spot. Thank you so much for the question and support of my first series.

Yes, Dan & Violet are the next book for the series. I don't have a date or any information because as I write theirs, I am also working on a different project. It may be a full length or a novella, I'm not 100% sure as I'm still working on it. I guess it all depends on how much they are willing to give. As for the other side characters, my answer is yes. I'm excited to write for them. I think they all have a lot to say still. I hope this little bit of information helps. Thank you.

Hi Asleema! Yes, Dan & Violet are getting their own book. I never intended on writing for them, but as I wrote WOWSS, it sort of just happened. They are my current project. I'll make an announcement when I have a better idea for release. Thank you.

Hi Amara! I am currently working on Violet and Dan's novella and have plans for the future for Mark. As far as Ben goes, I don't think this is the last you'll see of him, but it might just not be from Graham and Kennedy's view point. If that make sense. I have no more books for the two of them, but I'll never say never. :)
Lindsey Iler
Hey Audrey! The entire series will be from Graham's & Kennedy's perspective! As you can probably tell from When Our Worlds Collide, they have a lot more story left in them & have some major growing to do! I'm so happy to hear that you loved the beginning of their story! :)

Hi Melanie! When Our Worlds Fall Apart is in the works now! I don't want to give a set date until I'm 100% positive because life happens sometimes! :) As for the 3rd book, my hope is to have it released within the year! All I can say is that I'm working really hard to get them out ASAP!
Lindsey Iler
It's definitely a continuation of Graham and Kennedy's story! They need some much needed attention! I can tell you that this will be a 3 book series, all focused on Graham and Kennedy! They've got a lot of growing to do! :)

I step away, but not for too long. Watch a movie. Read a book. Little things inspire me. It could be an interaction between strangers at a restaurant. You never know where inspiration will strike. To write, you have to live.

Doing something you love. I don't think anyone has ever written a book and not loved the process. That wouldn't make any sense now, would it?

Write. Write. Write.
Write when you don't want to.
Write through the block.
Write even when only garbage comes out. (Trust me, it happens. I've deleted chapters upon chapters of work because it settles in and ends up being just a complete hot mess)
Read as well, please don't forget to read. Read books in your genre and out of yours to see what you feel works and what doesn't.
Don't EVER try to be the next "insert Authors name here"....be authentic and true to what you write. It's okay to admire and look up to someone, but never try to compare your success/failures to them. It never turns out well.

The 2nd book in the Our Worlds Series, titled When Our Worlds Fall Apart. I'm in love with what I have so far, and hoping to have it published by March/April (Please don't quote me because life happens!)

Music. I won't write without music playing. Certain songs have a way of bringing out different emotions from the listener, much like readers of a book. I love emotionally charged music, in all different genres.
The only time I don't have music when I'm writing is when I'm not near my computer and I write a chapter in my Notes app on my iPhone. My notes app is bombarded with words that don't even have a story yet. :)

Graham and Kennedy's story in When Our Worlds Collide sort of just came to me. I was in the middle of working on a different project when their story came to me. I just sat down and kept writing and writing. It was just something that had to come out, & I'm thankful that it came out the way that it did. I can't imagine their story going in any different direction then the one that it did.
