Q: Have you ever raised chicks? Are you a climber of trees? Do you play in a band with a continually changing name?!
All the details in the book are so vividare they drawn from your own life?
A: No, yes, and, uh… yeah. Although the band has never had a name that had anything to do with leg lifting.
Writing is a combination of experiences and research, and the whole chick thing took a lot of research.
Climbing the tree? That was very natural to write about. Skyler’s garage? Piece of cake.
Q: Do you have any plans to write a sequel to Flipped?
A: I’ve had a lot of requests for a sequel, but I think it’s the wrong thing to do.
My purpose for this book is to get the reader to think about what they would want for themselves in a relationship.
If I write a sequel and show what happens to Bryce and Juli, then that’s answering the question for them.
What I tell fans is to put themselves into Bryce’s or Juli’s shoes and live their life in a way that would make for the future they would want.
Q: I know fans have written to you complaining that Juli and Bryce don’t kiss at the end of the book. Why did you make that choice?
