Great learning more about you, Maree. <br /><br />I have seen those jumping in that river, Maree, but from the river's POV seeing as I was white water rafting - that was adventurous enough for my aching body. :)Eleni Konstantinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12410262752761104440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3039726215669901937.post-58158324140582096952012-01-24T21:02:07.476+11:002012-01-24T21:02:07.476+11:00That, you can keep, Kylie!

I've had so many requests from Wattpad fans for my first YA, Freaks of Greenfield High to go to print so they can buy a copy to keep, I'm considering doing just that. It's an interesting time to be an author. We've never had so many options.Maree Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11329496105174788219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3039726215669901937.post-68553817117636741642012-01-24T13:48:54.542+11:002012-01-24T13:48:54.542+11:00Great interview!

I did something similar and still have the 'seeing my work in print' to make happen yet - but I'm determined it will! <br /><br />How wonderful to receive the fan mail about your book! Makes all the hard work and late nights worthwhile I bet! :)LaVerne Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10418742073687153863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3039726215669901937.post-32168481179835746212012-01-24T11:41:24.271+11:002012-01-24T11:41:24.271+11:00Hi Sandy -- I assure you, I'm not disappointed...Hi Sandy -- I assure you, I'm not disappointed at all! The Old Spice man might have great abs, but he's not a writer so he wouldn't "get" me at all. He'd just think I was strange, LOL. <br /><br />"The only mss I haven't finished are those still waiting to be written" -- LOVE that!

It was terrifying and exhilarating as heck!Maree Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11329496105174788219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3039726215669901937.post-89404960840279781392012-01-24T11:35:23.324+11:002012-01-24T11:35:23.324+11:00Hello ladies,
