I am very pleased to have found a new author to follow Joel. Your new series is very well made and you found a great narrator for the audio version. Thanks for that! Please work hard on your next book, i can't wait! :) Do you map out the personalities before you write the book or do they just emerge during the writing process?

Hi there, sorry for the (long) delay, I'm not on Goodreads often. I definitely map out the personalities before I start writing. But when I start a new series, I only know basic stuff about each character, and the details then emerge as I write. The fun thing about being further into the series as I am now is that the characters are becoming so much more familiar, I can start exploring new facets to their personality.

Joel Shepherd:
Will RENEGADE be coming to iBooks? I've loved each of your books that I've read so far (I have a special soft spot for Cassandra and her friends and city), but I don't do business with Amazon (because of their warehouse labor practices; had been customer since year one— still have my Groucho mousepad). Is there any hope that I'll be able to read RENEGADE and later books in your new series?
