I just wanted to say congratulations on your newest story of Pern. I can say you truly have taken the Pern adventures to new heights. I can say honestly that your have your mother’s gift of story telling, and also have been the only person to bring me to tears and I read this book. Only one other author has been able to do this and that is none other then your beloved Mother Anne. I can remember being so distraught for the loss of Moreta Dragonlady of Pern when she went between without a point to go to, I cried so much for her loss. You were able to do that as well with the pain I felt for the riders as they suffered the loss of their weyrmates as they lost their battles with the dragon sickness. Well, again, thank you and please, please, please continue this story line. I eagerly await to see how Fiona and T’mar continue their relationship and how they fight to keep Pern safe from the dreaded Red Star (planet).

I was checking out your “Great Reading” list (which, frankly, you should update more ^^) and noticed the complete lack of Suzanne Collin’s “The Hunger Games”, which was my favorite novel of ’08. You need to add that to your TBR pile.

And while I’m sitting here, ordering you to go read amazing books, would you care to do an interview with me for my tiny little blog, WORD for Teens? I know you might say no, but hey, it’s worth a shot. I only do one a month, so it could take you to November to answer and I’d still be able to ‘view you.

Thanks! (Go read it. Dooooo it. You know you want to…)

I cannot purchase many of your works because I am on SSD and the money doesn’t stretch that far.

I get to the Public Library each week and am always on the look out for more novels of Pern. I have spent many years living through your families writings.

Yet again I am totally in love with Pern. There isn’t a book of your Mum’s that I haven’t read, and I am so pleased that you are carrying on my favourite series.

You have breathed new life into this story and for that I must thank you. I have not been able to put your books down, and have shed many a tear over them.

However, I have just finished Dragonheart in record time and now have nothing to read.

Please can you give us avid readers an idea of when we can expect the next installment.

Thanks again for reviving these fabulous tales and keep up the good work.
