Interview with Kami Garcia & Margaret Stohl with B. Marie

B.Marie: “How did the two of you come to be friends and then partners in crime for The Caster Chronicles?”

B.Marie: “Okay Margaret, on your website bio it mentioned you “designed and wrote for lots of video games”. I love video games and love you even more after finding out that you had named one of your beloved beagles after my favorite video game of all time, “Zelda”.

Margie: Right now, it’s more of a family thing. I never get sick of Rock Band, though I stink at the drums. We just got Starcraft 2, which hopefully will take over from Angry Birds. 17 and 15 have been busy with Assassin’s Creed. 9 is all about Little Big Planet.
