Sarah Rees Brennan Revealed

Q. What is your motto or maxim? A. I may not agree with a word you say, but would defend to the death your right to say it was Voltaire's first, but it's a good one! Q. What’s your greatest flaw? A. I tend to get over-excited and very, very loud. I rein myself in when people flinch and dogs start howling Q. What is your favorite occupation, when you’re not writing? A. Reading in a bubble bath. It's lucky my housemates sometimes need the bathroom, otherwise I might never get any writing done. Q. What’s your greatest fear? A. I have this awful fear of seaweed. I once read a book where a magical storm caused seaweed to rise up and eat a girl, and I still eye big clumps of seaweed warily when I go on walks down the beach. Q. What is your greatest achievement? A. Abseiling in six inch heels! (Secretly, my first book, but the abseiling was pretty impressive.) Learn more about Sarah Rees Brennan
