Annabelle is back in BOOK 2 of the Forgotten Fairies series! It has been five years since Annabelle led Operation Blast Shield in a desperate attempt to save the Earth from a gigantic asteroid. To Annabelle, it seems a distant memory. Annabelle needs a break from her job as a fart fairy , so she takes a week off to celebrate her birthday. She wants nothing more than a week of peace and quiet with her family and closest friends. But, it is not to be. A fairy hunter has discovered where Annabelle and all the other fairies live! The Fairy County is on high alert, but Annabelle can't help wondering whether the fairy hunter is as dangerous as everyone seems to think. *** Annabelle and the Fairy Hunter is book two in the Forgotten Fairies Series which began with Annabelle, the Reluctant Fart Fairy . *** INTERVIEW WITH M.T. LOTT How did you create the character of Annabelle the Fart Fairy? I'm a dad, and my two kids -- one boy, one girl -- love silly and slightly gross stories. Think Captain Underpants type books. My daughter loved fairy books and movies when she was little. She would constantly ask me to tell her fairy stories before bed. When I ran out of cute fairy stories, I created the Annabelle character. I probably told her fifty stories before I thought, "Hey, this might make a good character for a book." Did your daughter help you write the book? She was my beta reader, for sure. I also got a few ideas from her. Once I was stuck in part of the book and I asked her what she thought should happen. She had a great idea, and I put it in the book. When did you start writing books? I've written since I was in junior high school, but I never published anything. I was an off-and-on writer. Once my kids started reading, I thought about writing books for children, but I never had a good idea until Annabelle. What do you like to do for fun? Surfing, gardening, and hiking. What's next for Annabelle? I might start working on books about some of the other Forgotten Fairies. I think maybe Fevrile deserves a chance to tell his story.
