Hi Matt, I'm one of your biggest fans from India (insert fervent wish for an MR-Indian book tour here). You are my favourite author bar none, and I'm so glad my father introduced me to your books! I'd just like to ask two questions: Please don't laugh, but are you aware of fanfiction existing for the universes you've created? You'd be surprised at the rabid following you have! And also, when is the next Jack West Jr book coming out? (It's my favourite series: I really miss Zoe, she's my favourite character, out of all the books I've ever read! Promise you'll keep her safe.)

I don't seem able to keep my promise so here's another question. Your younger characters are all very charming and child-like (Lily, Holly Swain, Alby, et al) and Elizabeth's POV in the Tournament was beautifully written, but your adult characters are so dizzyingly adult and equally awesome. Who is easier to write?

Also, will we be seeing Teenager!Lily in the next Jack West book? :P (If my hints were any stronger they'd be the Hulk)

Matthew, thanks for doing this AMA, just one last question: any possibility of a book tour to India in the future? Probably promotion for the next JWJ? hint hint Also, I adore your writing, and I think you're an overall wonderful person.
