I absolutely adore your stark springs series, but I was wondering, if you would ever consider doing another bully kinda read like that, but more "adult". As in, just more actual romance?
Ali Dean Thank you! I don't have anything in the plans for something like that at the moment. I am considering doing a next generation type series for Stark Springs but not sure yet and it would be YA.

Would you ever consider writing a spin-off about Ingrid and Sven? I loved the development of their relationship in the Stark Springs Academy Series!

What happened to the Get Lucky YA novellas anthology? It has disappeared from Amazon? I feel lucky I was able to order it before this happened.
Ali Dean The Get Lucky anthology was only available for a limited time. I'm releasing my novella from that anthology - Double Love - November 16. I believe the other authors have or will be releasing their novellas individually as well! Unfortunately you can't get it as a collection anymore.

What’s the best thing about being a writer?
Ali Dean It allows me to spend more time with my twin toddlers than my previous job as a lawyer did. That's the best thing, but there are many other perks, to be sure!

How do you deal with writer’s block?
Ali Dean Usually writer's block just means I'm trying to make my characters do something they don't want to do, but sometimes it means I'm not sure what they want to do, and, in that case, I either (1) go for a run (2) drink a beer or (3) read a book. But I don't stay away for long, I just force myself to write something, anything, until it starts to flow again.
