Thanks for the quick Q&A about your characterization. I'm looking forward to reading book 2 of 13th and I must say that Maze runner begins with really strong descriptions and quirky fun Dialogue. It is intriguing right off the back and I'm now joining the ranks of the "I can't wait to read Maze Runner" fans. Thanks for the glimpse at it.<BR/><BR/>Graham you crack me up.

Hi Mr. Dashner! I have a question for you...<BR/><BR/>I am currently writing a fantasy novel of my own and am wondering how many words a regular YA novel is. What's the average number of words you write in a book before you send it in to review it? haha! I bet that isn't a normal question, but I was just wondering! <BR/><BR/>I think I am 7,000 words so far. I know that you write more than that. Any tips of writing you have for all of us amateurs? haha!

That sounds a lot like my word Ringled, which also means excited. I think yours is better because you add an extra meaning to it... feeling you can fly...^,^<BR/><BR/>Let's see if I can match it. Gluskie. Well, I'll make that a monstrous wolf creature that lives in the lands filled with ice. Like, an Abominable Canine. A mix between a dog and a polar bear. It's a mix between husky and glacier.<BR/><BR/>Usage: If you're going out in a blizzard, be sure to dress warm and get back before nightfall, so you can skip the <I>real</I> cold. Oh, and keep a watch behind your shoulder for those nasty gluskies. They'll take a mean bite out of your leg if they catch a sniff of ya.
