Jessi Hello Adrian!
It has been what...5..6 years since I first discovered you and what an amazing ride it has been.
I still dont understand how everytime i pick up your books i manage to find something new and exciting i didnt notice before. It has been 6 years already lol.
Five years since I joined your yahoo fan club at a tiny little 16 year old girl and now 22 years old. I just want to tell you that I love your books. Even to this day I can't help but to read them with a huge smile and some very scary giggles. Difference is now i have a toddler who comes and checks on me lol.


message 25: by Andreea

Andreea Cosa Hey Adrian,
First I'd like to thank you for the friend request:) Second, I just wanted to say that I just finished reading your Maker's Song series, after powering through it in less than a week, and I found it amazing! I've read so many vampire/angel books, but most of them simply can't compare! Of course, now I'm left wandering until the 6th one comes out, but I guess that's my own fault for devouring them like that:)) Anyway, just wanted to congratulate you for such an awesome series and say "Keep up the good work"...oh, and please please release the next one soon:D


message 24: by Adrian

Adrian Phoenix Hi Dawn:

So sorry I didn't see your comment until now! Right now, I have two books in the Hoodoo series and book 3 will be coming out this year (hopefully). I don't have a set number planned. I plan to keep writing them until there are no more stories to tell and Kallie and friends have a lot of stories. LOL.

I'm so glad you enjoyed the Maker's Song books as well! I have more planned for that series too. :)

Thanks TONS for your message and for all your kind words!

Hugs!
