The League is not only the first series I started writing at age 8, it's also the one I began my career with. Like Dark-Hunter, I want it to be an ongoing series and to write them for a long time to come. There's no set number to the series.

The first three novels I ever published were Born of Night, Born of Fire and Born of Ice (Paradise City).  Unfortunately, I sold them to three different publishers. As a result of that, I had to break them apart and make them three stand-alone books. I had to change everyone's name, all "League" terms, and replot the timeline. I had to make it seem like they were never a series or related in anyway. Once the Dark-Hunter books took off, fans began begging for The League books to be published again, especially since those earlier copies were going for as much as a thousand dollars on eBay. When St. Martin's bought them and repubished them, I was able to go in and rewrite all three novels to make them longer and to put them back together as a cohesive series.  Not to mention, I'd written them in my early twenties and I would like to think that I've improved my skills over the years. There is substantial rewriting on Born of Night and Born of Fire, but Born of Ice was tossed out and completely rewritten from scratch. It is an entirely different book from it's original Paradise City. When I started the series way back when, I envisioned writing the first generation (Nykyrian, Sin, Hauk, Darling, Caillen, Nero, etc.) and then to veer off to the second generation (Adron, Taryn, Tiernan, Thia, Zarina, Devyn, Darion, etc). When I couldn't get a publisher to finish generation 1, I moved on to Adron and Devyn's books- both of which sold. Adron's was originally a full novel, but was cut down to be in a novella that now appears in In Other Worlds. Since I didn't want fans to keep paying hundreds and thousands of dollars for out of print copies, and they were really insistent to get new copies of them, St. Martins wanted to put those out first. Now I intend to return to my original vision which is to write generation 1 and then to move on to generation 2 once those stories are told. I'm sorry if that's confused anyone.    

The answer lies inside his book. Once you read it, you will understand fully. Sometimes you have to trust me with things. Darling is still the same character he has always been. Nothing has changed and this was my intent for him from the beginning. I know what secrets my babies hold. After you read his tale, I don't think you'll be disappointed with the answer. I'm pretty sure he'll hold an even deeper place in your heart.

That's the plan! Hoping to have it in after Hauk's.

I hope so. If he doesn't get killed off... Just kidding. I have plans for him. I just hope he cooperates.
