Ask a Question: Ransome’s Crossing and Love Remains
Tuesday, August 10, 2010
I just realized that after the introductory posts for each of my summer releases, I never put up the final post I’ve done for each of the other releases: Ask a Question, Any Question.
As a refresher, here are the introductory posts for the two books.

So now it’s your turn. What questions about either (or both) of these books do you have that I can answer for you? Post them today and I’ll do my best to answer all of them on Thursday.

I have a question concerning writing in series format. When you go from book one to book two (and subsequent books), is it difficult to switch your mindset to a different main character? It took me a few pages to get into that mindset in RC – which made me MORE than glad you are still following Julia and William’s love story, as well! Oddly enough, I don’t have as much of a problem switching allegiance in contemporary stories. Very strange….
I’m just excited to be reviewing “Love Remains” soon!
If I think of something I’ll let you know… 
Quick question about Love Remains:
How do you decide the amount of back story to include for a main character? For example, Bobby’s life in California must have given you an interesting challenge and set of choices!
