Dear Ms. Khanani, I know that in 2013 you were about halfway through a draft of Memories of Ash and were figuring on an early 2014 release, but now I see that it's been postponed to an indefinite 2015 and it's got me a little scared. You are still writing it, aren't you? Stories are my greatest love, and I would be so sad not to find out what happens to Hitomi and company. Thanks muchly. Please keep storytelling.

Hi Carla! I am so so sorry for not responding sooner--I only just saw your question today. :/ I am definitely still working on Memories of Ash. I had to take from about March through August off due to family matters (my little daughter just needed some helping getting through a tough patch). I am back at work on revisions now, and hopefully I'll have a more firm release date soon! I'm really excited to be following Hitomi's story again. I won't give up till I've told all her story. (And hopefully I won't give up at all!) Thank you so much for your note. Stories are my greatest love as well. :)

Was this parallel in Thorn intentional?
I've reread The Horse and His Boy by C.S. Lewis and got a headache from its anti-Middle Eastern content. Falada and Bree are similar: A talking Horse who's proud often to the point of ridiculousness, and more magnificent than regular horses, who mentors a young protagonist new to the wide world.
If intentional, the nod makes me happy, kind of a reclamation thing.

Intisar Khanani:
Hello! First of all, I ADORE your books--I just finished Theft of Sunlight and I'm currently reading Memories of Ash. Two questions for you--I know you get asked a lot but is there any new information on when the next book in the Sunbolt chronicles will come out? I am not even finished with Memories of Ash and I'm already dying for the third. Second, is there any romantic relationship between Hitomi and Val?
