Ask the Authors

Each month, we will be asking our authors one question about their writing, events, interests, and more. We'll post snippets of their responses here, and you can read more on our blog. Our question for January is:

How do you react when readers discover something in your work that you didn't originally intend or were not aware of?

Read some of our authors' answers below!
