WHEN IS THE NEXT PIPPA BOOK COMING?!?!
WHY IS YOUR HAIR SO AWESOME?
A: My characters went on strike until I embraced my curls. Sacrifices had to be made.

I HATE YOUR COVERS / NARRATORS / STORIES / CHARACTERS.
A: It’s gonna happen eventually, since I’m not a taco or pizza or chocolate (and yes, I know at least one of you probably hates all three), but what you hate is what someone else will love. We like to focus on the positive here. The internet’s big, just like the world is big. Let’s celebrate what we love and pass by what we don’t, yeah?
WHERE CAN I SEE YOUR FABULOUS HAIR IN PERSON?
A: Right now I’m not planning to do signings for the next year or two, but I’ll keep you posted if/when that changes!!
HOW DO I SIGN UP TO BE ON YOUR ARC TEAM?
A: #TeamPippa (or, in the case of the Tickled Pink series books, the publisher) manages ARCs for me. Currently my ARC team is full, so please do not message #TeamPippa asking to be added. If there’s ever an opportunity to join, we’ll post about it in the Pipsquad.
WHEN IS THE NEXT PIPPAVERSE DAY IN THE PIPSQUAD?
A: Usually they’re on a Friday mid-month. Also, OMG, I love seeing everyone’s Pippaverse gear!!
You guys are AWESOME!!
HOW DO I LEARN TO BE A WRITER?
WHEN WILL CASH / DAVIS / PARKER'S BROTHERS / ETC get their own books?
A: I don’t know. They aren’t talking to me yet, but whenever I get any of their books about 2/3 of the way done, I’ll let you know. I have this people-pleaser problem, and since I hit burnout in the fall of 2019, I’m pickier about only writing books that give me joy in the moment, because that helps keep me from going back into burnout, which would mean zero books instead of eventually writing anticipated books. So, basically, whenever these characters give me a plot line that makes me cackle and lights up my entire world with joy, I’ll start, and whenever I’m sure I can finish, I’ll let you know.
HAVE YOU EVER HAD A PET RACCOON?
A: Only in this really weird dream once where I was also a princess of some interesting mushroom land.
WHY IS <insert book here> NOT IN KU RIGHT NOW?
A: Occasionally, I’ll get an offer/opportunity that requires my books to not be exclusive to Amazon, but a book can’t be in KU and also be offered on any other platform (in ebook form – audio and print are different), so I will occasionally remove a book/series from KU. Until such time as my business model permanently changes, which I don’t see happening anytime soon, those books will inevitably go back into KU at some point. I don’t always know when that will be, but they WILL be back.
WHY AREN'T ALL OF YOUR AUDIOBOOKS DONE DUET-STYLE?
A: Because it’s way more complicated and expensive to produce audiobooks that way. (p.s. Duet-style is when both narrators work together to narrate the entire book, trading off who’s speaking depending on which narrator is best suited to do the dialogue and thought of each character and secondary character.)
I WANT YOU TO BE ON MY PODCAST/YOUTUBE SHOW/TIKTOK, etc
WHAT ORDER DO I READ YOUR BOOKS IN?
WHERE CAN I GET ALL THE FUN PIPPAVERSE GEAR EVERYONE HAS?
A: T-shirts, mugs, totes, hoodies and more for all things Pippaverse can be found on my website in my online store. Check it out here: https://pippagrant.com/store/
How do I get on your Blogger / Bookstagrammer / Booktoker Mailing list?
A: I send out a monthly newsletter to this list, you can sign up for it here.
