I get a lot of the same questions about my books and life. Here are a few of the most popular!

FAQ about Jenna Petersen:

Will you write more Lady Spies books?
The answer right now is no. I adored writing this series, but I think it was closed off well in Seduction Is Forever, the third book in the series. However, if you've read the book, you do know that I left the door open for new spies and new stories, so I'm not saying never. Just no for now.

Will you ever write a story for Philip, Tristan's best friend in From London With Love?
Again, the answer at this moment is no. I never actually saw Philip as hero material, not that I didn't love him. I get this question a lot, though. Maybe some time in the future if I can find the right story and right heroine.

I loved Caleb, Marah and Shaw in Lessons From A Courtesan. Will you tell Caleb and Marah's story? Or maybe give Shaw a book?
Caleb will definitely get a story (it's in the works) and I still want to pair him with Marah since they obviously shared a very potent moment off-screen in Lessons that changed them both (they haven't yet shared with me the particulars of that moment). However, there are a few things in the works before I can get to them.

My next book, Her Notorious Viscount is another stand-alone story with un-related characters to Lessons. But then I'll be starting a series that I am seriously excited about and Caleb fits perfectly into that series. So he's coming down the line and I hope you'll love the stories leading to his moment. And don't forget... even when things don't seem connected... in the end they may be. ;)

As for Shaw, right now I don't have anything firmly planned for him (the series should take some time for me), but I wouldn't rule him out! I'm sure we'll see more of him in Caleb's book.

Will you do any more You Tell Me The Story interactive novellas?
I loved doing them so I'm not ruling it out. In fact, I'm starting to get a hankering to do one again! So... maybe. I'll be sure to post about it at MySpace, Facebook, my fan group and newsletter, as well as the Avon Authors message board if I do. The only reason I haven't done one in so long is that they are exhausting for me. I'm not a "pantser" writer by nature and that is how you have to write an interactive story. Plus, I got very busy with deadlines. But we'll see!

Will you ever write contemporary/paranormal/category/suspense/etc?
At this point I'm very happy writing historical and erotic historical romance. It's not that I haven't gotten a few ideas here and there that fit into those other realms, but I don't feel compelled to write outside of my current genres. So I hope if you love historical romance, you'll always know you can find a home with me.

Will you ever give up The Passionate Pen?
No! Actually when I first signed with Avon I got an email from someone saying, "Well, I guess that's it for Passionate Pen!" I couldn't believe it! I love helping other authors and interacting with them. I have no intention of stopping the site now or in the future.

We'll be celebrating 10 years next year and I have lots of exciting stuff coming up over there!
