Q&A with J.D. Stroube discussion

Discuss your favorite character and why they are your favorite! :)

My favorite character was the panther lol. The way Savannah was able to connect and bond with him was beautiful. Otherwise I'd say Savannah because of her strength despite everything she went through.

I love Kit too! I had fun creating him. :) I have always loved black panthers. :)

I kind of thought that the idea of him came from the love of your cats! The way you talked about them the time we hung out I was like awww, it was so nice to see the love of your cats be viewed through savannah's love for kit :)

It was a couple of things actually. I choose a black panther because they are sleek and exotic. Panthers are one of my favorite animals! The comfort that he brings... is definitely inspired by my love for animals. My cats are the first to sense when something is wrong. A while back, my hand got sliced open. Sienna (youngest cat) was so worried. I had never seen her like that, but for the next week she followed me around everywhere. :)

I like black panthers. That is the form the Vampire took in the first vampire story I ever read. I think it's the contrast between the black body and the yellow eyes that makes them so striking looking. They are like two golden pools in a flowing black body.
