I found a new author a few weeks ago, and feel totally in love with her books. I've read through about 5 so far, and am searching for more. So, I looked up her website, and it gave her email addy, and said that she loves hearing from fans, and that she answers each email personally.
So, I emailed her, and expressed how much I enjoyed her series, and how well written I thought they were, yada yada yada. Told her a bit about me, too, like that I'm a stay at home mom, with 3 kids, and how books are a great escape.
Well, I got home today, and she had emailed back! She talked about lots of stuff, books, kids, etc, it wasn't just a typical "Thank you for your interest in my books!".
I wrote back. I'm so stoked.
