Chime Resources

Check out information about the author of Chime at her own website, and enjoy peeks at her other books.

Franny Billingsley talks about the setting, why she writes her female heroes like she does, and the possibility of two more companion books for Chime.

After a small joke about writing being horrible but practicing law being worse, Billingsley reads from the first two chapters of her book.

Billingsley reveals that writing this book was such a long and difficult experience that the best words to describe it are wretched and despair. There's also an interesting tangent about the book she wanted to write originally, and how she figured out Briony's wound.

If you wondered how Briony became Briony, how Chime became Chime, and what Billingsley is working on now, this is the interview for you.

Give your peepers a break, and turn on your listening ears.
