Lexi: This is exciting so I have to get right to it. You have a new serial coming out titled MAKE ME! For those who haven’t tried a serial before what is your favorite thing about them and what is your favorite thing about writing them.
Hi Lexi. Thank you for having me!
My favorite thing about serials is that it’s a different reading experience. It’s like watching a television show one time a week for 8 weeks. You don’t have long to wait for each ‘episode’. The serial is great for the traditional reader, but also reaches out to the non-traditional reader: the on the go professional who reads on the train, the mom who reads in the waiting room while her child is at the doctor’s office, etc. I’ve also heard quite a bit from people who haven’t read in a while, or maybe were never big readers. They write me and say the serial got them reading because the weekly episodes weren’t too intimidating. Many say finishing the title and anticipating the next is very positively reinforcing and fun. That kind of feedback is always amazing and prized by me.
