Letter from Diana

I think it’s safe to say your new Dragonrider books are a hit. That’s all I see in your fanmail! But I wanted to add my cheers to the crowd and say that you did indeed succeed with Dragonsblood and the co-written Dragon’s Kin. And the reason I know you succeeded is that I get just as choked up aching for this fantasy world as I ever did with your mother’s books.

I also really wanted to say thank you for continuing the series. I was heartbroken to think that it might end when your mom decides she needs a rest. And a rest she does deserve; everyone should be able to retire without people constantly hounding them to get back to work! That being said, take your time on the rest of your ideas. I’d much rather read well thought out, well written books than some of the speed writing I’ve read from other authors. I like the directions you can take it.
