Hi Kayla!
Thank you so much for your comments. I’m glad to hear that you’re enjoying the Twisted Tales books!
I’m hoping to do more books in this series, but there aren’t any current plans. If you’d like to join my newsletter list, you’ll be the first to know if another comes out. The form is on my website.
i love your twisted tale books, please please make more these are the only books i will actually enjoy because i honestly dont like reading, but these books are just so interesting
Dear Maureen,
I love your twisted tales books and Am hoping that you would be willing to make another one, Possibly Rapunzle? I was joking around with a friend and we came up with the names Rapunzle Werewolf Hunter and Dragon Tamer. If this helps in any way, awesome!
Thanks so much, Charlotte! That means a lot to me.
I have outlines done for two more… Coincidentally, one does have a werewolf… and one does have dragons! But neither were Rapunzle!
I do hope to do more.
Curious… Do you read e-books at all? One way I could more easily continue the series would be in that format.
It would more likely be Snow white werewolf hunter, Ariel an the shrieking sirens, Mulan and the cruse of the chinese dragon, etc I have more but your the writer an I like what I’ve read so far 😉
I think you should write a twisted tales about snow white, a jewel thief. She runs when the Hunter shows up. She meets the dwarfs, and as part of the deal to stay there, she has to help steal from the kindom. They train her but the queen finds out, tracks her down and gives her the poison apple.

I’m only half way through book one, but I really like this series. I can’t wait to read more.
I love your writing…And really look forward to a lot more twisted tales! Is it possible for you to make your books available as ebooks? It’s much easier for us who live way over here, in Asia…
Hi Yohara! Thank you so much for your kind note.
I hope to write more Twisted Tales in the future.
The books are available in e-book form. If they aren’t available in your country… You could try contacting the publisher, Silver Dolphin Books and ask them. (I don’t have any control over where the books are available.)
Thanks again for your note!

All the best!
Again I think your an amazing writer just finished Sleeping Beauty – Vampire Slayer !!!! It was the BEST !!!!!!! Starting Cinderella – Ninja Warrior next, can’t wait !!!!!!!!
Greetings from Toronto Maureen, I have never observed my daughter so absorbed in a book. Thank you for the strong female characters you have created in the Twisted Tales series. She loved the Sleeping Beauty tale and I have just purchased the Cinderella book for her 10th birthday at her request. I am looking forward to her growing with your books and to passing the Twisted Tales down to her little sister when she is ready for them. Kind regards, Lori Sears-Malik (aka Viking Warrior Mom)
Thank you so much!
More books please I love to read the twisted tale series so much please write more
Thank you so much, Amara! I’m so happy to hear that you love them!
These are some of my favorite books. I love the Twisted Tales. I hope you make more. These books and you are my inspiration, for wanting becoming an author.
These books are wonderful. It is so exciting to read these. I and my friends love to read shy princesses turning brave. So Please would you write more twisted tales.
i love your twisted tales.
i was wondering if you can make more twisted tales???
i LOVE the twisted tale series so much. i love how there are so many different outcomes and you can read each book over and over with a different story (which i have done) It is unlike any book i have ever read. YOU CAN CHOOSE WHAT HAPPENS IN THE BOOK ITS AMAZING. Um, anywho i was wondering if you were going to write anymore because i bought the books when they came put and i really wish more existed because they are so great.
Thanks so much, Stella! You made my day.
I’d love to write more books in the Twisted Tales series, but my publisher wasn’t on board with doing more. If things change, I’ll let you know!
You can sign up for my newsletter list to make sure you’re in the know.
Thanks again,
Maureen
I’m sad to read in another comment that your publisher wasn’t loving the idea of more twisted tales because I very much enjoyed them even though I’m outside of the target YA audience. I’m a teacher and actually borrowed the Cinderella book from a student who was reading it in class after she told me how much she loved it. I read all of the possible paths and then asked if she had the other book. (She did, and I read that too!) I have since purchased copies to add to my classroom library for other students to discover. Thank you for your writing.
I agree with Kayla. I’ve read both books so many times the books are worn. It would be amazing if you made more. I’m not big on fairytales but I quite enjoyed these and would love for more
