Interesting Story Facts
huntersseries:
The first book of the Hunters series is currently with the publisher, in the editing queue. So while we all wait for updates, here’s an interesting tidbit.
This series started out as a role play between my partner and I while we had a long distance relationship in college. She was down in Iowa and I was up here in Minnesota. I drove down to see her at least once a month (a four hour drive one way!) and during the rest of the month we hung out on mIRC and AIM throwing our favorite anime characters into new plotlines of our own creation. Somewhere along the line these characters took on personalities, lives and stories of their own so they were completely different from the characters they were named after. Years later I got bored at work and wrote a scene between two of the characters just for fun, and that became the first scene of this book.
While we wait, I’d love to answer questions about the series if you guys have any. So, any questions for me?
Hey everyone, in case you missed it, I have another book coming out. This one is with my lovely partner and it has its very own tumblr page since it’s going to be a series. Be sure to follow it to get the latest updates :) There’s already a few teasers and snippets posted.
Also, we’re both open for questions in regards to the series, or writing in general ^^
