Posted by Len on September 29, 2007 at 12:56 pm
To Lisa Liu: Erm, I’m not Tamora Pierce – I’m only a fan who collects canon info on Sheroes. If you’ll note the introduction, my name reads Len.

What an awesome site! You must have spent a lot of time and effort on it-needless to say, awesome job!

O_______O *le gasp*
That was me when I accidentally stumbled upon your AMAZING tammy-haven. You have put SO much work into this, and it shows. I think I’ll be spending the next few weeks or so exploring every nook and cranny ^^
Thanx!

hi len
i found your site via sheroes. I was just browsing through and noticed at least one tidbit that i have that you haven’t. i’ve got about 90 articles, just things that tammy has said on Sheroes over the years, but i cannot be bothered going through to see if you have all of them.
it’s about Jonathan being a liberal king, in the context of Tortall. if you want it, email me with something about sheroes in the subject line and i’ll send you it, if you want all my saved articles (most of mine are related to SotL cast – they are my favourite) let me know too. thanks.
Posted by Len on October 2, 2007 at 7:14 pm
To Nicola: I think I have the bit about Jonathon liberalizing laws – is this one? If so, I just forgot to add Jon and Thayet into the categories.
I would also love it if you sent your saved articles to me – I’ll email you later on to see what you have what I might not that.
Thanks for your contributions! ^^

This website is amazing. I’m going to spend so much time procrastinating on here. I’m not quite sure if I should be thanking you, or cursing you
Good Work!
Posted by Marie on October 14, 2007 at 9:40 pm
This is a fantastic website! But, either I’m blind, or you son’t seem to have much information on the Immortal beings of Tortall and surrounding areas.
Posted by Len on October 19, 2007 at 8:30 pm
Marie: Some of the Immortals may be lumped in the Gods and goddesses category.
But if there isn’t a lot of info on the Immortal beings of Tortall, it’s because Tammy didn’t talk a lot about them on sheroes.
Posted by Emily on October 30, 2007 at 8:03 pm
Wow, this site is really wonderful! I absolutely love the Tortall books! Thank you for this site, even though I suspect it’s going to be just one more reason I procrastinate on homework…
One thing- Deliah of Eldorne has two categories on your site because her name is spelled both Deliah and Delia. You may want to check into this.

Len -
I’d like to thank you a ridiculous amount of times. The tortall books serve as my escape into the reading world, and i’ve been really disapointed with the lack of quality things i’ve found on the internet.
Keep it up! This site’s amazing!
p.s ever think of adding a fan art section?
Posted by Len on November 24, 2007 at 11:20 pm
Emily: Thanks for catching that mistake. I’ll be looking into that.
Thames Young: Heh, thanks. Fan art…erm…not at the moment, no. I could add links to fanarts if you’d like.
Posted by Sarah on December 2, 2007 at 9:21 pm
Thank you so much for posting this site! I found the link from sheroes, and I wanted to complement you because it is fantastic!
Posted by K on January 14, 2008 at 3:14 am
Hey Len,
A friend of mine directed me here and I wanted to comment and thank you for all your hard work. As someone who references the books a lot for details for an RP, this is a fantastic resource.
Posted by A on January 27, 2008 at 6:55 pm
I have read all your tortallan books. They rock
Posted by A on January 29, 2008 at 9:14 pm
Erm, is this Tamora Pierce’s website, or someone else’s? And is it she who answers the questions?
Posted by caroline on March 1, 2008 at 11:31 pm
Does tammy actually respond to any thing on here?
Posted by caroline on March 1, 2008 at 11:33 pm
just wanted to say, i didn’t stay up real late on the internet. i just l;ive in a different part of the u.s. also, i want to send a million thanks to len! you have opened my eyes and let me see things i haven’t seen before. thanks!
Posted by caroline on March 1, 2008 at 11:34 pm
does anyone know all of Tamora’s book’s names?
it would help if i knew what to look for in stores.
Posted by caroline on March 1, 2008 at 11:39 pm

Posted by caroline on March 19, 2008 at 8:43 pm

Posted by SorryMom on March 29, 2008 at 1:42 am
When I think of those times in their Audi—ah!
Posted by caroline on March 30, 2008 at 8:44 pm
Audi- what????????????????????
Posted by Rosalind on May 12, 2008 at 8:25 pm
Wow, I just found out about this site on Steelsings–it rocks! It’s full of all sorts of fun info, and is a great way to read more about Tortall even if you’ve got the books memorized!
Posted by howiejane89 on July 17, 2008 at 9:35 am
Do you have any information concerning how Tamora Pierce envisions her characters? Does she have actors in mind or all they all purely fictional?
Thanks!
Posted by Len on July 24, 2008 at 8:19 am
Thank you everyone, for your kind comments. (No, I am not Tamora Pierce, only a fan. The responses are hers, which I merely quote from Sheroes.)
caroline: Sheroes Central can be accessed here. It’s in the Blogroll (Links) section of the sidebar of this site.
Rosalind: I’m glad to hear Steelsings recommending my site.
I hope it lives up to people’s expectations.
howiejane89: Sure! If you look around, there’ll be something. For instance, Neal was based off of Christian Slater [note: click here for Tammy's exact words].
Posted by Joy on July 25, 2008 at 11:33 am

Ooh, let’s try that link again. Screwed the html code for that, sorry.

Posted by bubbles on October 7, 2008 at 8:52 pm

Posted by bubbles on October 7, 2008 at 8:52 pm

is there any news about that either?
Posted by Len on October 17, 2008 at 12:11 am

Posted by Tamora Pierce on April 21, 2009 at 3:36 pm
Len, hi!
May we post a link to this site on my webpage, with credit for you, of course!? I’d really appreciate it!
If you’re agreeable, would you give us the wording for your credit, too?
Thanks!
Tammy (Pierce)
Posted by Tamora Pierce on April 21, 2009 at 3:39 pm
P.S. Do you want a quote from me for the site? I really love it–it’s well-organized, informative, and fun!
Tammy
Posted by Len on April 29, 2009 at 12:08 pm
Tammy: Oh wow, no way! I’m flattered that you want to put it up on your website. And I would love a quote from you for the site! As for organization, I’m actually working on a format that will be easier for people to look up stuff (temporarily called Pages). You can see the progress here, if you’d like.
As for credit, I’m fine with Len, and if you’d like, the email for this site is tpwords@gmail.com.
Posted by Taya Jenkins on October 15, 2009 at 1:13 am
I was just wondering if Tamora Pierce were to continue the Protector of Small Books, would Kel and Dom be paired together?
Posted by Len on October 22, 2009 at 6:15 pm
Taya Jenkins: All Tammy has revealed about the future Kel book is that it will be from the viewpoint of Kel’s squire. Every time the question of whether or not Kel and Dom will get together comes up, she is pretty evasive when replying. Here’s her most recent answer to your question.
Posted by Taya Jenkins on November 3, 2009 at 6:37 pm
Alright, my bad
Posted by Len on November 4, 2009 at 7:00 pm
Taya Jenkins: Not really sure what you’re apologizing for. Trust me, I’m glad to be of some help.
