Debbie Macomber:
You and your Dakota series were my inspiration to become a romance writer. Do you plan to add to that series? Did you find it challenging to have so many stories going at the same time without confusing the reader? You did it perfectly. I couldn't put the books down. How long do you think a series should be?

Jean,
I’m honored that my Dakota series inspired your own decision to become a writer. I wish you the very best in your endeavors. As to your questions. Sorry to say I probably won’t be writing any more in that series. I actually didn’t have a problem with multiple story lines as I tend to do that in several of my books. Hopefully the reader is able to follow along. As for the length of a series, I write until all the stories are told. It’s the job of the author to recognize when to end a series and it’s often difficult to let go of the characters.
