Hello Sr. Have you thought about making a special draw of your copies in Spanish for Venezuela? It is because in this country the currencies are controlled and it is very difficult to acquire some books.
Thank you.

Hola Diana. (y Hola Venezuela)
Muchas gracias por leer.

This is a great suggestion. Thank you.
Let me see what I can do. At the moment, Planeta Libros isn't running any giveaways of the Spanish editions but I will suggest this,

Oh, great. Very good. Thank you so much for your answer. Happy Night.

When the Gabriel's Inferno Trilogy is optioned for the screen, do you envision who you would like to play Gabriel and Julia? Not asking you to share who the actors are.

Oooohhh. Sounds interesting. Can't wait to read it ♥♥♥

Hi :) I would like to ask which heroine is your favourite and why?

Hello Jackie,
Thanks for your question.
I've given this quite a bit of thought over the years. And I may have shared some of my favourites on social media .... ;)

But truthfully, I've been very interested in hearing from readers about their favourites. I'd be interested in yours as well.
Thanks for reading,

Hello Irma,
Thanks for your question.

I like all the heroines I've written so far but there is something special about Raven from The Florentine Series. She isn't a conventional heroine because she has a disability. She's incredibly brave and compassionate and intelligent.

All best,
SR

What inspired you to become an author?

Hello Eleni,
Thanks for your question.

I started writing at an early age. For me, it was something I felt compelled to do and I continued writing over the years. But "Gabriel's Inferno" was my first novel and it was published in 2011.

All the best and thank you for reading,
SR

Do you have a phrase or quote that you have written in your books that is your favorite?

Hello Mz Sonia,
Thanks for your question.

I like this line from "The Raven," - "You are my greatest virtue and my deepest vice."

All the best,

Any special tips for marketing NA fiction?

Hello Kate,
Thanks for your question.

My publicist, Nina Bocci, is a marketing whiz. I'm fortunate to be part of her team.

But apart from working with a specialist, I think there are a few key strategies. First, it's important to be active in the NA community. Get to know the readers, the reviewers, the bloggers and the other authors. Word of mouth is the best way to market your book because people trust their friends for book recommendations.

Giveaways are also an important strategy. Make the giveaways generous and creative.

Collaboration and cooperation are untapped strategies. Work with other authors as a team, pooling your resources, and you'll find that your reach is far greater than just your own readers.

Good Luck!
SR.

Thank you so much for your generous answers!
