Meeting Authors, Writing To Them

Prompt: Have you ever met an author or wrote to one and have one write you back?

Yes. I met an author at Barnes and Nobles who wrote Scottish romances. She was nice and I got her autograph. I can't remember her name or find the book right now. I once emailed Danielle Steel and she emailed me back. I was surprised. She wished me luck with my writing and said she is glad I am a fan and enjoy her books. Another author named Krista Allen writes books about supernatural Halloween characters and wrote to her asking if she was to going to write about mermaids and she wrote me back. What a surprise.
Another time, a Scottish Romance author, Melody Thimas, I was on her mailing list and got an email that I won a copy of her latest book and she would autograph it personally. I wrote back and she said she was going to send me her book. I found out in another email, I hadn't won. I wrote her back and apologized. She sent me an email saying the email list was a mistake and the one winner never answered her email and told me I was a worthy fan because I had written her before. I wanted Adrian Paul to be used as a model for her next book. She said she wished he could have been. Melody Thomas sent me an autographed book of her latest novel. I was so happy. I ordered Lara Parker {from Dark Shadows} her book and she autographed it plus I got 2 autographed pictures of her made out to me.

Kate Collins, a local author sent me 2 book marks of her and her latest book autographed. These things have been quite an honor.
