Good questions, bb.

1.) Lucy was my hardest character to right, and I kind of got into why in the blog above. She was a tough character to redeem, since some of her initial decisions made her unlikable. It was rough, but I brought her back.

2.) Yeah there were a few. Cole was supposed to live instead of Lucy is coming to mind, and another where Cole gets scratched instead of mauled (aware that Lucy is pregnant btw) and writes something for his future kid to read. Glad I went the way I did, though.

3.) Yeah, tons. There's always more I could've done with my characters, but the super 8 group comes to mind, Devon, Lienne, Tora, Duke are some others as well I felt more could have been done with.

4.) I was just sitting on the bus one day and thought I should have a crack at writing another zombie story after the tragedy that was PL. The first couple volumes weren't very strictly developed, as I really wasn't that experienced in the first place, but plans eventually came more quickly as time went on.

5.) My favorite was the Hyatt arc, because I actually took my time on it and I'm really happy with how it ended. Least favorite is the super 8--felt like it was too rushed and I could've did more with the characters there.

6.) Verrrrrryyyyyyyyyy different. As in, I can't even imagine it different. Her death was just so integral to the story I'm not sure what would have happened if she'd lived.

7.) Again, veeerrrrryyyyy different. As the story reached its end, it was clear to see she was my new lead, so having the story without her would be totally rework the plot and tons of my characters. Can't imagine DF without her.

8.) Definitely introducing too many characters, such a large amount I couldn't even handle it. I'm glad I fixed that issue toward the end though.

9.) Hunter's was my favorite, mostly because I'm actually very proud of it.

10.) UHHHHHHHHHH, I'd bring back Alec, Finn, and Chloe prob

11.) Finn--I feel like he was my least developed main, so more could've been done with him.

12.) Ummm, not really, no. I felt like I had enough characters to deal with already :P

13.) Finn's death was actually more last second. I was only planning to kill Hannah, but I felt like killing him would provide tons of development for both Cole and Billie.

14.) OMG UHHH, EDEN, ALRTF, LoT, FTL, AND ENDANGERED FO SHO
