Hi, Gail! Really hope this isn’t a bad way to ask, but I’m a huge fan of your books! Ella Enchanted was one of my favorite books, and actually turned me into an avid reader! It was the first novel that I actually enjoyed, and Ella and Areida are my favorite characters! I also really love Mandy! I read it when I was around nine years old and am now twelve years old and am a published author. I would love to be able to interview you on my blog!!! I really really REALLY love your books, and it would be really cool to be able to interview! Not sure you’ll ever see this, though, so…
Thanks a lot!
