Hi 👋 I’m your biggest fan ever and i can’t believe how good your books are🤘🏼!
I have read all of your books about 6 times now!
I have a few questions.
What is the first tree in real life?
What was the joke Torah made before the bear came?
Why did you start writing wolf brother?
Do you eat any snacks while you are writing ✍️
Do you like chicken nuggets and ketchup?

Hello, Raven, it’s great to hear that you enjoy my books so much!  To answer your questions:

1. The First Tree is what we could call the Northern Lights, or aurora borealis..
2.  Other readers have also asked about the joke Torak had just told before the bear attacks – but I’m afraid I will never tell!
3. If you go to wolfbrother.com and go into the Cave, you’ll find a post on Why I Wrote Wolf Brother.  It involves meeting a large, very frightening black bear in the wilds of California… I hope you enjoy it.
4. I only occasionally snack on a few almonds or a banana while I’m writing; but I do drink lots of coffee and tea.  It gives me a chance to take a break while the kettle’s boiling.
5. Nope, I’m afraid I’m not fond of fast food – but I do, occasionally, enjoy really well cooked chips (French fries if you’re American) – although with mayonnaise, not ketchup.  Thanks for getting in touch, Raven- and may the guardian run with you!  With very best wishes, Michelle
