Callie Abbott-Kilpatrick asked Jeremy Bates:

Not a question, but a compliment... when I read your books, I get so immersed that I actually become sad when the story is over. So... I IMMEDIDATELY start another book. You keep me wanting more, & I thank you. Your art is MUCH appreciated. Thank you. Btw, besides King & the like, WHAT are some of your influences for your wonderful stories?

Jeremy Bates Hey Callie,

So sorry for the crazy late reply ! lol I don't get on GRs much, and when I do, I don't know all the ins and outs and didn't even see all these pending questions until now. Anyway, thanks so much for reading the books :) Besides King etc, my influences are totally random. What I mean is, whatever the latest book I'm reading usually influences me in some way. A good example was a Denis Lehane novel. I'd never read him before but I got into his writing and it influence a little how I was writing the book at that time................
