Sunday, July 29, 2012 at 2:53PM As luck would have it, the official release of Paving the New Road has been sandwiched between a bout of the flu (in which 3 of the 4 human members of my household ended up with pneumonia) and the wonderful Byron Bay Writers' Festival. Not only did thoughts of the latter help me survive the former, but the two have worked together to give me no time or energy to fret about the reception which this latest outing of Rowland Sinclair's might recieve. That doesn't mean of course that I do not have moments, between coughing and packing, to furrow my brow and hope people will like it. It just means I have things to do while I worry.
Regardless, on Friday I will be in Byron Bay... soaking up the creative atmosphere, catching up with old friends and colleagues like Jesse Blackadder, Shamini Flint, and John M. Green and hopefully making a whole lot of new ones. Oh.... and I'll speaking on a few panels too.

Hi Sulari Gentill,
I am Anna McGirr. I am 13 and Australian.
I love your first two books of your book series "The Hero Trilogy".
If there ever was a movie going to be made. I would love to play the character Hero. I am not am actress but I think Hero and I are quite similar.
Thankyou. You are an inspiration to me!

Dear Anna
Thank you. It's lovely to hear from someone who "gets" Hero. I'd love to see the trilogy made into movies too. I hope you enjoy The Blood of Wolves as much as you did the first two books.
Warmly
Sulari
Dear Sulari Gentill,
I loved the third book of The Hero Trilogy, The Blood of Wolves. Thank you so much for writing them! Any news on the movie front? I would just love to see them come to life. Thank you again and again!
