This question contains spoilers…
(view spoiler)[In Half Bad, Nathan had a brief vision of shooting Kieran, with the implication he was executing him. In Half Wild he does indeed kill him, but not with a gun. The change wasn't addressed so I'm left wondering what it meant. Did the future change? Or was the vision not actually a prophecy? (hide spoiler)]

Hi! Thanks for the question.
The vision happened when Nathan was talking with Mercury and it was not a prophecy, but it was Mercury messing around with Nathan's head. She knew Nathan hated Kieran and wanted to kill him so that was a game of hers - to put a vision in Nathan's head. Mercury genuinely believed that Nathan was meant for killing - and perhaps she was right there…
The only real prophecy was that Nathan and the Fairborn will together kill Marcus.
There are more dreams and visions coming in HALF LOST (in the draft so far) but again I use them to show what Nathan wants, feels and remembers rather than what is going to happen.
Good question.
Thanks. S

Hello! I was just wondering, have you got any plans for books after Half Lost? I realise this sounds really impatient of me, but I'm really excited. Also I want to say that the Half Bad books have been great, it seemed that throughout it I was thinking 'Damn... I wish I thought of that.' But anyway, I can't wait for Half Lost, and good luck!!

Hello from Romania, Sally! I am really exited about Half Wild. I stayed up till 4:45 A.M. to finish it last night and I REALLY LOVED THE END. It was everything I wished for in a book. It has suspense, love and witchy stuff here and there. But I have an obsession to ask writers how long did it take for them to write a book, so (sorry, I can't help it)... How long did it take you to write HALF BAD?

Hello, I my name is Hailei. My father read your book HALF BAD and suggested it for me. After the first page, I became addicted. It was amazing. You inspired me to write a book of my own. Even though I am only 12 years old I would LOVE to get it published. Do you think it's possible for me to do that? If it is what do I do?
