Hey Heidi!

Thank you for the feedback! Yes, both of things will be addressed in Created. I, too, am very excited for the Created release :-)

Awww, June you're so sweet :-)

Christine wrote: "Will we be able to look to another book in the series after Created?!

Did you have a vision for the series when you wrote Talented or did the story evolve for you as the characters themselves did...."

Hey Christine!

There will not be another book about Talia after Created. Her story will end there. I am considering doing another book/series in the same world. Depending on whether the series/book takes place before or after the Talented Series would determine whether any of the characters from the Talented Saga would come into play. BUT this is just an idea right now, no promises :-)

I did have a vision for the entire series when I wrote Talented. I knew how the entire series would end before I ever wrote a word. Caged was actually supposed to be the first book in the series, but after I wrote it, I realized that I wanted the readers to bond more with Penny before the truth came out. Sooooo, I wrote Talented. Originally, I thought it would be more of novella, but I have a tendency to be, um, wordy? So, when it turned into a full-length novel, I just went with it.

Hunted was the least planned, most improvised novel of the series. I hadn't planned on going into so much detail about some of the events that happened in Hunted, but after I started writing things just sort of took off.

Side stories/characters, though, those evolved a lot as I went along. Only Talia, Donavon, Erik, Penny, and Mac were developed in any way before I started writing!

Oh, and, thank you! I love the Created cover, too. It just might be my favorite in the Talented Saga. Big thanks to Robin over at Designs by Robin - she did an amazing job!

Hey Deanna! As of right now, it looks like September 1, 2013 in the US (it will take a little longer before it goes on sale internationally). I will keep you guys updated if that changes, but everything is coming along nicely so I am confident that will be the actual date!

Will we ever find out the relationship between Crane and Talia?"

Hi Belinda :-)

Yes, you will find out a lot about Talia's parents and both her, and their, relationship to Crane!!

Amanda wrote: "I think a book in Donovan's POV would be awesome, especially after what came to light in book three. His story needs to be told!"

I have had other people mention that idea, so there is a chance you might see one in the future....

I have always written from the time I was a child, so I feel like it's always been in me. I have all of these stories flying around in my head, so I decided to just go for it and write one down :) That was Talented and its sequels, and the other series are pretty much the same; they're just ideas that I have, that truly become something when I sit around with my best friend and we discuss them, adding to them and shaping them until we've developed them.

I don't have one specific author who inspires me, I love reading (though now I have absolutely no time for it, so I listen to audiobooks while I work) all different authors and genres. There are so many incredible writers and stories out there, who all inspire me.

Hi Rabsaris!! Hope you're doing well sweetie! I answered this in the welcome forum, but I'm copying my reply to here as well:

Sadly (not just for you guys, for me too!), Created will be the last book in the Talented Saga. I am kicking around the idea of a novella from Penny's POV, and possibly doing a spinoff with different characters in the same world, but Created will be the last book in Talia's story :(

My name is Sophie ;) Lover of books, dogs, and all of you! <3

As I'm working on Created and getting the book finished, I want to be sure that I didn't forget to answer anything that people have been left wondering after reading the previous books. So, post your thoughts and questions here- what are you hoping will be answered in the final book in the Talented Saga? What questions do you have after reading the first three books?

This folder is the place where you can ask me any questions that you might have! Whether they're about me, my writing, my books, or anything else, feel free to post your questions in a new thread here. I will check the folder and answer at least once/week!

Hi guys!

Thank you so much for joining the Sophie Davis Books group! I wanted to give my readers somewhere to congregate, discuss the books, give me feedback, and ask questions (both of me and of fellow readers). Feel free to start threads and get this going!


xoxo, Sophie
