So this 'him' wouldn't have the appearance of someone with the initials C.F. would he?

Hi AB

Glad you've enjoyed the books. I'm rather surprised actually by how many youngsters are reading them. A lot of the children in my sons' year ( at school have read them so it 12/13 is obviously the age when many younger readers move into that next level and fantasy is a great introduction into adult reading. Because there's the good and evil, lots of action, larger than life characters and normally a big adventure, it can keep them absorbed.

I'm going onto a new series, I hope. I have a working title for book one called Odalisque and it will be a setting which is a very long way from Tallinor, Morgravia, Briavel, etc. It will have a sort of ancient Turkish feel I think and I'll be tearing myself away from meadows, villages with inns and the usual European style medieval court. It's not going to be easy but I'm up to the challenge and I think it will be refreshing to delve into a more exotic tale.

I can see 'him' in my mind's eye and two 'hers'. Hope to start writing book one in March.

Thanks again and hope you'll drop by often.....F

p.s. every success in your teaching career. I have to admire you. Anyone prepared to take on a roomful of hormonal kids, or even infants, all day, every day, is special! (grin)

hello! ^_^ loved the book! I read it in one night and my mum was trying to take it off me, she gave up in the end. I'm 13 and already I have let a couple of my other friends read the book, they all can't wait for #2 to come out. So yes, I would have to agree that us 13 yo's are reading your fab books!
keep up the great work Fiona!
lots of love - Cheyenne

Hi there Cheyenne - thanks for dropping by and especially for confirming what I've suspected for a while. 13 is certainly a magical age. My sons turned 13 on Feb 10 but boys still seem light years away from girls at 13. It's scary - in the main girls are so aware of themselves, great communicators, very got together and friendly. Thanks for passing on the good oil to friends too. Kind of you to sing such high praise and Blood and Memory is really not that far away now - about 14 weeks or so. Come again - you're most welcome. F
