"Hi Nejla (what a lovely name!)--
I certainly get the point, and oh, my, did I let it out in Shadow Souls. 당신 are right. I was just telling a Swedish reader that 당신 should always follow your 심장 and in SS I did follow my heart. I didn't think anyone would like the book because it was about another dimension and the girls were slaves--my publishers tried so hard to cut that out, but I felt that Damon was 더 많이 mature when he had a "family" to care for. With that book, I followed my 심장 in everything.
There are some Stelena scenes, too, and I meant them; I felt them. But 읽기 it over was like a whack over the head. I still think it's the best book I've written since the original Vampire Diaries. And I do have to admit that the romance sort of sizzles about Damon and Elena. But whatever would I do with poor Stefan?
I'd better introduce some girl characters fast. But please remember, the endgame may not come for a while. I am at the mercy of Alloy Entertainment and Harper Publishers for this for the original 책 were "written for hire." That means that I was a desperate young writer who would sign over all my rights, just to get published and be promised that I'd see my 책 in actual bookstores. (Despite good reviews, this didn't happen with my first two books, Solstice and Valor.) So I don't own many rights in regard to The Vampire Diaries, and have to fight, tooth and nail, to have my own plots.
Would anyone possibly consider the "Katherine" solution? Elena is with Stefan for the 일 and with Damon for wild, wild nights? After all, men do it. They just don't mention their mistresses to their wives. Elena, being 더 많이 honest would want to be forthright about her choice. 또는 maybe she gets pregnant with Damon's baby...
In any case 당신 have excellent English. I don't even know where 당신 are from. But thanks for a thoughtful and passionate email!
